Kenzan, the extract of what you found says it well. The carotenoids determinetes the color of the yolk. And there are many ranges of colors of yellow and orange in the eggs. Is all about the quality and the kind of aliments which the hens are fed.
I can say that actually, yolk has more proteins than the... Uhm, well, the part that is not the yolk (can't remember the name).

Can't say about which color is more nutritional though, but alway's good to keep them in the frig.

You weird American people have white-ish eggshells too, ours are eggshell coloured JoDuncan, the pigments in the food also affects the color of the shield, like green, light brown, white and others. So, we do have colored shields in América
It's more about what they eat than the race of the poultry, not the color of them.

Can't say more, I didn't attend so much to my poultry classes.
