If eggs get cold do they need to stay cold?

When I collect my eggs in the evening do I need to store the in the fridge since they've gotten cold throughout the day? This is my first winter with chickens. TIA for all responses

It'll depend on your situation if you want to store them or not. Here's a good website:

Glad you're here Warsaw!


If you haven't yet, make sure your coop(s) have a proper amount of VENTILATION. Your chickens will absolutely thank you for it!

Unless you wash them, they can be left on the counter for weeks. We keep most of ours in the fridge but we also have a basket we keep on our island. I mean, they have to stay warm to get hatched!
