I was wondering how long an egg can sit in a nesting box before it can no longer be eaten? Say you go out of town for the weekend and collect eggs before you leave Friday and don't come home till Sunday night will the eggs laid in that time still be good. Or say you miss an egg laid in the run and don't find it for a few days....will this egg still be good to eat or will it have gone bad or started the baby chick inside?
Thank you.
Thank you.
