how long can u keep eggs out of the fridge before you incubate them and they still hatch i only get 2 a day from 2 chickens and advice for getting like 12 or so?

we save up to 2 weeks, put in an egg carton in a cool room, and prop one end of the egg carton on a book, and every day you add more eggs, turn the egg carton around so the other end is elevated.

That's not hard to figure out. You wait six days times two eggs a day and that equals............12 eggs.. Ta daahh!

It is not advisable to refridgerate hatching eggs, but you can store them at a 55* temp outside the fridge I beleive. Store them pointy end down. The max days for storage is seven according to numerous sources, so I would go with that. While you can even store them longer but the fertility starts to drop.
