How dirty do your eggs look on the counter?

[Citrusholly]

I’d like to keep eggs at room temp on the counter but my dear and loving husband is repulsed when they are super dirty.
Would any of your counter-duck-egg folks care to send a picture of what your counter eggs currently look like?
How much wiping is too much to preserve the bloom?

I can send a picture later, but we don't wash any eggs until right before they go in the pan. Usually the chicken eggs don't need it, but duck eggs do. Honestly I often crack dirty eggs right into the pan. I know this probably isn't best practice, but I'm the only one eating them and I am thoroughly cooking them, so it's a personal gamble. Generally the cleanest ones get eaten first since it's less hassle, but it all works out in the end
