Egg Shelf Life

[MaMaBikerChic]

Another quick question. I know I read it before but I can't find it. How long can you keep fresh eggs in frig? I also think I remember something about wiping them with oil and keeping them at room temp!?

That's a good question, I'd like to know that, lol.

I think it depends on your stomach for it.

About the longest I've read is:

6 weeks on the counter

6 months in the fridge

Here's a fun read about it

Imp- I always eat the freshest eggs my hens lay, I rarely eat any older than a few days.
