Green eggs (6)	Jul 10, 2008
White eggs come from white chickens, while brown eggs come from brown chickens. But no, green eggs don't come from green chickens. Unbeknownst to me until last Saturday, green eggs literally do exist. I thought they were made-up. They're not darkly colored, but there's definitely a green tint to them. There are two in my fridge at the moment. They will be eaten within the next week. #food

	I don't think that's true about the white and brown eggs, but I could be wrong.

	The American Egg Board says, "The breed of hen determines the color of the shell. Breeds with white feathers and ear lobes lay white eggs; breeds with red feathers and ear lobes lay brown eggs."

	Chickens have ear lobes? Fascinating.
