>Dark-earlobed breeds that produce brown eggs, such as the Lohmann brown, are typically more aggressive, so have their beaks blunted when they are day-old chicks to stop them pecking each other as adults. They have been known to peck each other to death to establish their hierarchy and are even prone to cannibalism.

Accidental redpill?

No. Go back to your containment board, faggot.

Wait so the brown ones are more prone to violence?

Oh Christ, /pol/ mods need to start handing out site-wide bans instead of just banning users from /pol/. All this does is make them shit up other boards, which is an irony they will never understand since they virulently hate migrants in the real world.

>Why do I not eat white eggs? Dark-earlobed breeds that produce brown eggs, such as the Lohmann brown, are typically more aggressive, so have their beaks blunted when they are day-old chicks to stop them pecking each other as adults. They have been known to peck each other to death to establish their hierarchy and are even prone to cannibalism. I feel that as a high-test apex predator, this is the egg most appropriate for me.

Wtf. This is bullshit. All chickens on hyper intensive egg operations get their beaks blunted because all chickens will attack and eat each other,especially if they aren't given any space. Doesn't matter what color egg they lay.

You'll find just as many pictures of leghorns with blunted beaks as lohmanns.

i was told the colour of the egg comes from the hens diet, similar to how the yolk colour is affected by the diet
and that meant the white eggs were coming from poorly fed hens

No, it comes from the breed. There are chickens who lay white and chickens to lay brown. there are chickens who lay green and olive and black eggs.

Chickens, like dogs, have many different breeds.
