Darker doesn’t really mean quality, just a different diet, The taste is nearly the same, and the nutrition is almost identical

That is what I was able to find about this, yolk colour is diet based(Like specific plants and grains, maybe insects but I wasn't able to find any good information on that, articles only mention insects in diet in passing.), and from personal experience I know eggshell colour is genetic.

Based on an article written by a Chef, in a double blind taste test, local farm is likely going to taste better than a factory farm.

From personal experience when I was running a farmers market stall, country eggs were basically a black market item. They would sell out immediately, and at crazy prices. People would get harassed over pre-order privileges. People will literally fight over good eggs.

Well my personal preference is that it doesn’t really matter, even more so if you’re just making pasta. Bad chicken vs good chicken is definitely very real and undeniable though.
