I used to get free range chicken eggs from my next door neighbour, and I
knew that they were free range because they used to come and visit,
usually around dinner time. They also seemed to enjoy my raspberries. The
yolks were bright orange. Omelettes and scramled eggs made with those eggs
were orange.
