Eggs from the same chicken laid a week apart. The color has darkened after adding treats high in carotenoids to their diet.

Our take

Did you know that the color of your chicken's eggs can change with their diet? It’s true! After treating my feathered friends to some cluck-tastic goodies like carrots, corn, marigold flowers, spinach, and red peppers—foods high in carotenoids—the eggs they laid a week apart went from pale to egg-citingly vibrant! Talk about a yolk that makes you say, “Wow!” Not only do they love their treats, but my breakfast is looking extra sunny, too! 🐔🥚✨

I love treating my chickens and have been giving them a daily treat of foods high in carotenoids such as carrots, corn, marigold flowers, spinach, and red peppers. They love the treats and I love the color of the yolks!
