There is usually no difference notionally between white or brown, organic or non-organic. Brown eggs are used on the cooking shows as they show up better on camera.

We love the Costco (white) eggs, they are bigger and consistently fresher that supermarket eggs, and usually cheaper. The only problem is if you want to do egg salad or deviled eggs, they are so fresh that the don't peel easily.
A quick look says one is organic and the other cage free. Which is better depends upon whether you want to be cruelty-free or insecticide-free in your diet.
I suspect that there isn't any difference, both being commercially raised eggs, but buy one of each and compare them.
There is a difference between commercially raised eggs and home grown eggs, if you happen to have access to a small homestead that keeps free range chickens and sells eggs.

After boiling the eggs, run them under cold water, crack them a little bit, put them in ice water (with lots of ice cubes in the water), wait for a moment, you will be able to peel them easily.

Just to clear up the difference, "cage free" and "free range" are two different things. Cage free means the chickens are not in tiny cages but most likely still crowded in an interior space.
Free range is just that. Chickens are allowed outdoors to roam and forage.
I'm just posting this because so many people think cage free is the same as free range, but they are 2 very different things.

Is this a trick question? Read the labels again. They clearly state the other obvious difference: size. The brown eggs are extra large. The white eggs are large. The size of an egg partially depends on the size/age of the hen that lays it, but a larger egg weighs more, which can translate into a few more grams of edible protein per egg. Typically, the "grade" of whole eggs you find in a grocery store is either A or AA. A lot of what goes into grading is cosmetic. Grade B eggs tend to be used in egg-based products.
