Chicken Egg Color Chart
Chicken Egg Color Chart. As you can see in the egg yolk color chart bellow, the egg color tends to vary from yellow to orange to shades of red yolk. Chickens that lay white eggs can be found all over the world.
This is why an Olive Egger (a mix between Marans and Ameraucana chicken breeds) will lay a dark green olive egg, while the Favaucana (half Ameraucana, half Faverolle) will lay sage green eggs.
Blue and other egg colors are formed as the egg develops and the color appears on both the inside and outside of the shell.
It all depends on what the hens were given to eat! Below: A purple looking egg with a heavy bloom.. Chestnut is similar to but darker than a bay color.
