Discussion
The color of an egg yolk is determined almost entirely by the henâs diet rather than the breed or whether the eggs are âfarm-raisedâ or âstore-bought.â
Hereâs why home-raised chicken yolks are often more yellow (or even deep orange):
1. Natural forage and greens
âą Chickens raised at home often roam freely, eating grass, weeds, clovers, and leafy plants. These contain xanthophylls (a type of carotenoid pigment), which concentrate in the yolk and make it brighter yellow to orange.
2. Bugs and diverse diet
âą Free-ranging hens eat insects, worms, and other protein sources rich in pigments and nutrients. This varied diet boosts yolk color and nutritional richness.
3. Vegetable scraps and grains
âą Many backyard flocks get kitchen scraps like carrots, pumpkins, kale, or spinachâall loaded with carotenoids. These deepen the yolk color.
4. Mass production diets
âą Commercial egg producers typically feed hens a standardized grain-based diet (corn, soy, wheat, supplements). While itâs balanced for production and shell strength, it lacks the natural diversity and pigment-rich plants bugs provide.
âą Some commercial farms do add marigold petals, paprika, or artificial pigments to brighten yolks, but the effect is usually a more uniform pale yellow compared to the rich variability of home-raised eggs.
đ So: the more greens and carotenoid-rich foods a chicken eats, the darker and richer the yolk color.

Honest question: what is it about chickens, that they just let you walk off with their babies without complaining?
I donât know for sure, but I guess comparing eggs and chicks is the same as comparing used tampons and babies⊠Hens lay eggs daily, fertilized or not⊠As women, they have all the egg cells (oocytes) from start, but they âmenstruateâ daily. If a hen is brooding (lying on the eggs) or if the chicks have hatched it wonât let you get the eggs or the chicks without a fightâŠ
