POULTRY EGGS: MYTH vs FACT
MYTH:
“Brown eggs are healthier and more nutritious than white eggs.”
FACT:
Eggshell colour does not determine the nutritional value of an egg.
The colour of the shell is mainly determined by the breed/genetics of the hen. Both brown and white eggs can provide high-quality protein, vitamins and minerals.
What matters more?
✔️ Balanced nutrition of the hen
✔️ Proper flock management
✔️ Egg freshness
✔️ Hygienic handling and storage
KNOW YOUR EGGS!
Shell colour ≠ nutritional superiority
