The nutrient compositions of these eggs were similar
to those reported by Hidalgo et al. (2008), Karsten
et al. (2010), Anderson (2011), and Anderson et al.
(2011). There were higher fat levels in the white eggs,
which can be attributed to the yolk percent advantage
the white eggs had, but may be viewed as nutritionally
neutral. This study indicates that the USDA 2013 nutritional
guides are consistent for the eggs produced by
different strains, egg colors, and molting of laying hen
on nutrient contents.
