Hey everyone,
In Oregon we’ve been getting temperatures of 110+
My chickens are safe (free range, running sprinkler on coop roof, running a fan)… but the eggs are very warm to the touch even well after laying. I realize they come out hot, but how hot is too hot? And for how long? I try to collect all throughout the day, but today I didn’t get them until now.
Should I compost them or are they still safe for consumption?
