Black-Copper Maran Eggs
These are the darkest eggs that chickens can lay. They look just like they’re made of milk chocolate.Â
Some can get a bit darker than these examples, and some can be delightfully speckled, as can be seen above.
NOTE: If you are sold a black egg, it is not from a chicken. Rather, you may be getting an egg from a bird species that are known to lay black eggs, like a Cayuga duck. Or you may even have been sold an artificially-colored egg.Â
