What is the appearance of hard boiled eggs?

Hard-boiled eggs have a distinct appearance:

Shell:

* The shell is a solid, opaque white or light brown color, depending on the breed of chicken.

* The shell can be slightly rough or smooth, depending on the chicken's diet and age.

Yolk:

* The yolk is a firm, solid yellow or orange color, depending on the chicken's diet and age.

* The yolk is usually a darker yellow or orange if the hen eats a diet rich in carotenoids, such as yellow corn.

* It can be slightly greenish if overcooked.

White:

* The white is a firm, opaque white color.

* It is slightly rubbery in texture.

* The white may be slightly grey or green if the egg is overcooked.

Overall:

* The egg will be smooth and firm to the touch.

* There may be some slight cracks in the shell, depending on how the eggs were boiled.

Note: The appearance of a hard-boiled egg can vary slightly depending on the length of cooking time and the freshness of the egg.
