Eggs safe with higher temps??

[mhegge]

We went away for a 4 day weekend and temps outside would've been around 80. Will the eggs in the nest when I get back be safe for us to refrigerate and eat with exposure to those high temps for up to 4 days?

Yes they'll be fine to eat

Thanks!

I've had eggs left out in the coop in 90 degree weather for a week and ate them with no effects. Not that I'm recommending this, I'm just saying lol.

The higher temps age the eggs faster, but they should be fine for that time. I'd be careful with any that got really dirty, though. Having a neighbor or friend check on the birds daily is best anyway, and let them have those eggs. Mary
