So long story short I always collect my eggs I never let my girls sit on them. Last week we went on vacation and when I got back and was collecting eggs one had been cracked open and their were maggots on the other eggs from where it had rotted🤮. I threw out the egg that had been cracked and seen that none of the other eggs had been cracked so I washed them and put them in a egg cartoon and put them in the frig. My question is are these eggs ok to consume since they were wet from the egg yoke or should I throw them out? I know if you get an egg wet with water it takes away that protective covering on the shell that allows time for them not to be refrigerated and I was not sure if the same applied to the egg becoming wet with egg yoke.
TIA
 
I'd use those eggs for baking or for anything that require the eggs to be well cooked. Or you can hard boil them and feed them to the chickens.
