We are new to the chicken raising thing and just started getting eggs. My daughter ate the first 2 we got and said that they were the best eggs she had ever had and that she didn't want me to buy them from the store anymore (she's 4!). Today my FIL was preparing her some eggs and thought they smelled funny and refused to let her eat them. I thought that the first one's I cooked smelled a little funny, compared to what I have eaten all of my life, but figured that it was because they were fresh. Now that my FIL is worried, I'm getting paranoid! Do fresh eggs smell different than store bought? My daughter ate them and thought they were wonderful. I wouldn't say that the smell was bad, just definately a distinctly different smell... Also- how long do you keep the eggs? I've had some in the fridge for a week...
