The difference between white eggs and brown eggs is the breed of the chicken. White eggs are laid by chickens with white ears, and often, white feathers. Brown eggs are laid by chickens with brown ears, and often, red feathers. Brown eggs cost slightly more than white eggs at most markets. This is because chickens that lay brown eggs are larger and cost more to feed, resulting in more expensive eggs.
