The egg color that a hen will lay can usually be determined by the color of the ear lobes.

Hens which lay white eggs have unpigmented ear lobes.

Brown-egg-laying hens have pigmented reddish ear lobes.

However, a green egg layer, such as an Easter Egger or an Aracuna, will have the white ears typical of a white egg layer.
