Some chicken breeds lay eggs with a pink color hue, and they can add interest to your egg basket. Pink egg shells come in a variety of pastel hues, including salmon, baby pink, seashell, and sand. Pink egg-laying chickens come from all over the world and not one particular area, with breeds originating in countries such as France, England, the United States, and China. Here are some chicken breeds that are known to lay pink eggs:

• Salmon Faverolle
• Light Sussex
• Croad Langshan
• Barred Rock
• Buff Orpington
• Silkie
• Easter Egger

Its important to note that not all chickens of these breeds will lay pink eggs exclusively, but its always a pleasant surprise to find a pink-tinted egg.
