Pretty In Pink

[FlyWheel]

Which breeds, on average, are best at laying pink colored eggs? I've seen some that can actually be called purple!

I have a barred rock that lays a very pale pinkish egg. Some Australorps & some EEs will. Light Sussex, Langshan & Asil are supposed to lay a pinkish egg. Cuckoo Marans will lay a speckly purplish egg. To some extent it depends on the individual bird. All mine are supposed to be brown egg layers but most days I get shades of cream ~ everything from pinkish to tan to maybe brownish.

My LT Brahma laid pinkish eggs with purplish speckles...
...my SLW lays pinkish to orangish eggs.
Hue and speckles vary.
I believe it's all about the bloom in combo with a light brown egg.
