Changes in Brown Eggshell Color As the Hen Ages
The color of eggshells from eggs laid by commercial-type Hy-Line brown hens 25 wk of age was studied over a period of 10 mo. Color measurements were made by a color machine vision system and were analyzed using a mixed model to calculate between and within hen variances and to investigate the effect of time on shell color.

Inheritance of Tinted Eggshell Colors in White-Shell Stocks
The present study was conducted to study the genetics of tinted eggshell colors in two breeds of chickens laying white-shell eggs. Reciprocal crosses were made between an inbred White Leghorn line (ES) and an inbred Ancona line (ANC). The F1 birds were intercrossed and F1 females were backcrossed to each of the original lines.
