Boiling eggs?

[Centralflafred]

I don't know if it's me or what, but I had always heard that the fresher an egg is the harder it is to peel when you boil it. Well the other day I wanted some boiled eggs in my salad for lunch and I picked up three of the eggs I had just brought in from the coop. those had to be the easiest eggs I've ever peeled and I'm sure they were the freshest eggs I've ever boiled. I was wondering if anyone else has ever had the same experience?

Thanks,

My same-day eggs peel really easy too.
I use the BYC Long Boil method - 15-20 minutes boiling, then dump off hot water & replace with cold.

Before I had fresh eggs I used to start them in cold water, bring to a boil and let sit for 5 minutes.
