The yolks of the eggs produced by factory farms are a pale yellow, lacking in nutrition, and this even changes the consistency of baked goods using eggs as an ingredient.

I am willing to pay an extra couple of bucks every couple of weeks for eggs that taste amazing, bake amazing, AND come from chickens who spend most of the daylight hours outside running around eating bugs, grubs, and worms, rather than being exclusively force-fed grain that is not natural for chickens to eat.

I'm with you. Only fresh local eggs for me.
