Our hens are finishing their molt right now and so we are having to buy grocery store eggs for the moment. We actually know the farm that sells the eggs we buy but there is nothing like having eggs from our own chickens. The deeply rich orange color of the yolk is something to behold (and desired) when you crack open the hard shell.

Thanks for this informative post @mericanhomestead! If folks just compared taste and even the look of the yolks, they would know there is a huge difference between large corporate farms and small independent farms. Thanks for raising awareness with all your posts!!
