I have eggs that are white, brown, dark chocolate, blue, light green and deep olive green. I try to put all of these in each carton. My customers say it is like Easter morning when they get their eggs. They can't wait to open up and see what colors are inside. I also put an insert in a carton to let them know about my chickens and introduce them to some of the flock. Nothing like excited customers and those who truly appreciate the fresh egg on the home farm.
"You will enjoy these fresh eggs laid by my spoiled hens living contently in my Valley of Beruch (praise) homestead. They are fresher than store-bought eggs and even healthier. Studies by Mother Earth News magazine showed free range backyard chicken eggs have up to four times the nutrients and a third less of the “bad stuff” than mass produced store eggs. Different chicken breeds lay eggs of different colors. The brown ones were either laid by Buff or Lavender Orpingtons, Barred Rocks, Dominiques, Cinnamon Queens, Buff Chanteclers, Black Australorps or Rhode Island Reds. Pale blue eggs by Blue or Black Ameraucanas and the green eggs were laid by Easter or Olive Eggers. The white ones by either White, Brown or Exchequer Leghorns or Blue Andalusians. The dark chocolate ones by Welsummers, Black Copper or Cuckoo Marans. All are equally nutritious and delicious! My hens live in spacious coops with a large fenced-in yard where they enjoy sunshine and fresh air. They eat insects, grass, and table/garden scraps, but rely on premium commercially produced feed as the mainstay of their diet. Don’t hesitate to call with questions or if you want to tour my Valley of Beruch homestead to see the wide variety of breeds and colors of my gals. And of course, meet Sambo, Colonel Sanders or Brewster, the roosters who keep the gals in line and protected. Call or email when you’re ready for your next batch of fresh eggs!"
