The French Black Copper Maran lays the darkest egg of all chicken breeds. Until a few years ago this breed was difficult to find and a breeding pair would go for hundreds of dollars. The dark eggs are prized by French chefs because of the deep orange yolks and rich flavor.
However, sometimes even white-egg-layers can lay a slightly brown or tinted egg after a long period of non-laying. Egg color is often (not always) tied to chicken earlobecolor. Chickens which lay white eggs tend to have white earlobes, like the pullet above. Mediterranean breeds, such as the Leghorn, are bred to lay white eggs. White Egg-Laying Breeds: Leghorn, Ancona, Hamburg, Polish, Silkie, Icelandic, many others
