Brown eggs aren't inherently more nutritious than white eggs simply because of shell color.

Shell color is primarily determined by the genetics and breed of the hen.

The egg's nutritional composition is influenced much more by factors such as the hen's diet.

Brown eggs can sometimes cost more because certain breeds producing them are larger and may require more feed.

The shell's color isn't a nutritional ranking system.
