Check this out!
Can you guess which is which? The upper egg is directly from the farm. The bottom egg is from the grocery store.
Farm eggs have a harder shell and take two hits on the counter to open them. Grocery store eggs crack when you barely squeeze them!
Farm egg yolks are richer and make anything your using them in (cookies) orange. The yolks are even harder to mix/scramble because they are so thick. The yolk will stick to the edges of the bowl and you need a spatula to get it all out.
Grocery eggs are pale yellow and seem slimy, but they whip well and seem fluffier.
I have some of both in my fridge. I tend to use both. The farm eggs are much smaller than the 'large' eggs from the grocer. So if I'm making 3 eggs in the morning for my breakfast burrito I'll use 2 farm eggs and 1 grocery egg.
