Store vs. Fresh

Our chickens have started to lay. Quite the difference in color compared with store bought eggs.

Yellow - From the store.
Orange - Fresh from the chickens, who eat whatever they can find while they roam free around the yard.

    Is the orange color of the yoke more enriched with "good stuff" like vitamins, proteins, or whatever the like?

    I've never done any studies, we've just noticed with our own, and eggs we've gotten from friends who also have "free range" chickens, that the color is much more orange. Makes one wonder! :)
