I have one EE X Sultan hen and two red sex-link hens. Although I would take a fresh egg over a store bought egg any day (people laugh and me and tell me there's no difference in taste b/w fresh and bought...but THERE IS!!!
), I do look forward to eggs from my EE mix especially more. Her eggs are much smaller than my sex-links but man, those eggs are hardy little things and they seem to sit a bit better. I love fried eggs (over-easy) for breakfast and I noticed when cracking them into the pan, my EE mix's eggs seem to be more thick and the sex links seem a bit more thin and the egg-whites seem a tad "watery" (it tends to spread thin covering the whole surface of the pan). Of course the sex-link's eggs seem better for cooking (pies, cakes, cookies...etc).
I don't know, maybe I am just a bit biased because I like my EE more....
Does anyone else notice a difference between their laying hens [of different breeds]? Which egg is better?
(is there really a difference or am I starting to loose my mind? lol)
