How long can eggs sit out?

I can not answer your question, but a unwashed egg can last at least 21 days without refrigeration. (Not that it would be good, but a baby chick can not form and grow in a contaminated rotten egg...)

Most countries do not refrigerate eggs. They keep them unwashed to keep them naturally protected. I am beginning to think we have it all wrong in the US. Using chemicals in and on our birds, trying to kill off the bad stuff.. Washing eggs in high tech machines
What happens? Massive outbreaks. You never here of anything on this scale happening in other countries that do not wash eggs, have small local producers selling eggs in small local markets.

If eggs float in water, they are probebly bad. If they are touching the bottom, they are GOOD. I toss the floaters and keep the sinkers. Grade A eggs, which are most grocery store eggs are 6 months old. FDA says they can be stored at 40 degrees or below for a year.
