30-6 Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I went to use some shop bought chicken eggs today and the yolks were orange. Exactly the same consistency as a "normal" yellow yolk. Any offers as to why the colour change ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
