Default Are egg yokes from vegetaian fed chickens supposed to be dark orange?

OMG. No way! You should be jumping up and down with joy that you
found them.

Real home fed (kitchen scraps) chickens have dark orange yolks and
their eggs are so rich I can hardly eat them. I'd rather eat deep
dark chocolate than an egg from a home fed chicken because those eggs
are too rich for me.
