So I'm not affiliated with them and I'm certainly skeptical about the Free Range/Organic craze but I've been buying these eggs for a few months and they really seem to be of better quality than the Nulaid and other battery brands.

The yolk is much brighter and more orange and the membrane around the yolk seems thicker so the yolk doesn't break as easily making them much easier to work with. I'm probably just imagining it but they seem to taste better as well.

Just be sure they're not importing them from China :p

That is absolutely insane. Then again, in the West most yoghurts are just cornstarch and water with a few cultures thrown in so they can legally be called yoghurt. Not to mention the fact that the fruit inside it is often fake :

There is a simple reason that the yolk is more orange: There are more colorants in the chicken feed.
Usually they mix in something like Canthaxanthin to get the bright orange color.
Fresh organic eggs on the other side are yellow or pale yellow, because organic chickenfeed is not allowed to contain colorants.

I prefer my eggs without colorants and stay with organic. :)
