The color of a hen's egg is related to the breed of the hen. Our farm selection of birds has been based on wanting a variety of colored eggs. When given the chance to free-range, a hen will find a safe roosting place. It could be a fence top, a barn rafter, a roof edge, or a piece of equipment that does not often move. Free-range, organic pasture-raised birds have produced eggs that cause less GI upset in some individuals who have stomach issues with commercially produced eggs. Freshly laid eggs have a coating from the hen that protects the egg from bacteria transfer through the shell. Unwashed, free-range eggs can be kept on the counter and do not require immediate refrigeration. Never fear you found an "old" egg. Simply place the egg in a cup and fill the cup with cool water. If the egg remains still on the bottom of the cup, you have an egg good to eat! Eggs that have begun to spoil produce gas within the egg and will float. Don't try to hard-boil your super-fresh eggs! Ideal eggs for hard boiling are at least a couple weeks old. As the egg ages, it will shrink inside the shell. This will allow for easier peeling when hard-boiled.
