That poor hen! Do you see any of your girls limping around the yard saying "ouch! ouch! ouch!"?
i've gotten big ones like that from time to time. i like to save them to give to friends, since they are usually double yolkers.
As for egg collection. i try to collect every day, especially in hot weather. And i will put them straight into the fridge if it's especially warm. But when it's mild or cooler, i leave them in a basket on the sink. i've left eggs out for a couple weeks and they were fine.
