    Yeah, my grandma has differenttypes of chickens, so sometimes we get green, sometimes brown, sometimes white, and ALL different sizes. Every once in a while she'll throw in a speckled egg for us. Not sure what kind of bird makes those ones! lol.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Why, a speckled hen, of course! Just like brown eggs are from brown chickens, white eggs are from white chickens, chocolate milk is from a brown cow, and white milk is from a white cow.

    Sheesh, don't you know ANYthing?

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I never knew there was a such thing as a green rooster! You don't think she had an affair with a green parrot do you?

    Of COURSE there is such a thing as a green chicken ... where do you think Dr. Suess got "Green Eggs and Ham" from?

    Where do you people live ... under rocks??

    Hmmmmm .....as to the parrot thing ... it's always a possibility, I suppose. Are said green eggs smaller than a normal chicken egg? If so ... you might just have yourself a secret inter-species love affair going on. Might have to set up a hidden camera in the hen house.

    OMG! I'm about going to die laughing! LOL LOL

    Can't set up a camera now. My little Henny Penny has passed away years ago. I had her years and years and years ago. She was the cutest, cuddliest, fluffiest golden chick in the world! I miss her.

    She grew up and laid yummy green eggs. I still wonder where they came from.............the green color. I hope she didn't have a green macaw as her mate! LOL

    Maybe not to you, but they did to me. I've had them from at least three different places, and I didn't like them.

    From my experience...........the brown fertilized free range eggs taste different.........not good. The white non fertilized free range eggs taste exactly the same........and I can say that because we always used to eat the normal eggs, until just 2 years ago.

    Hmmmm. Don't know. I always buy free-range eggs for home. But of course, I have eaten regular eggs in restaurants and at some friend's houses. They all taste the same to me, and to everyone else I know that have tried them both.

    Maybe you should do a blind taste test and see for sure if you can tell the difference, or if you are being subconsciously influenced by the appearance of the eggs. (I'm not being snotty, this is a common, real phychological phenomenon, honestly.)
