Re: red spots on eggs - the color of eggs funny story

Some of our brown eggs look almost pink! A very rosy brown.
This reminds me of a funny story I just have to share. A few weekends
ago we went camping with a few other couples and took eggs to share with
everyone. My husband made sure that each dozen had some white, brown,
and green eggs before he handed each family their dozen freshly laid
eggs.
Now we always expect some surprised reactions to the green eggs, lots of
people have never seen eggs from an araucana chicken. In fact they
always start a fun conversation, which is why he made sure everyone got
some. So imagine OUR surprise when one lady opens up her carton of eggs
and with honest astonishment says "WHITE eggs? You mean they LAY white
eggs??" Well! We were just dumbfounded, we looked at each other, and
then at her, and finally my husband said "surely you've seen white eggs
before?" to which she replied "Of COURSE I've SEEN white eggs!" We are
really confused at this point, so my husband asked "How did you think
they got them white?" and she said "Why I thought they were bleached!"
Everybody got a big kick out of that. Never heard that before!
And I, who usually feels like a misplaced city girl, didn't feel like
such a city girl after all!
