Ever Wondered Why Some Egg Yolks Are Deep Orange? π₯
Egg yolk color has nothing to do with freshness β itβs all about what hens eat. Pale yolks come from processed feeds with fewer natural pigments, while rich orange yolks come from diets full of greens, insects, and carotenoid-rich plants. Free-range and pasture-raised hens naturally produce darker yolks because their food is more diverse. Nature always leaves clues if you know where to look.
