Taste isnt really the issue. Cost is. Also environment, they will have to use more electricity to heat the "barn" in winter. That just adds more CO2 to our atmosphere. Thanks but no thanks. There are farmers markets where you can buy the eggs if you want orange eggs.

The reason the yolks are yellow has nothing to do with free range. It has to do with once the egg is hatched in a barn its taken away from the hen and heated so that the hen can lay even more eggs. I have had eggs from a chicken barn and they have been orange so I dont think that free range has anyhting to do with the color. The diet and supplements used might have something to do with it.
