Is this egg safe?

[NoodlesMama]

I found an egg in my run this evening. I suspect it may be Noodle's first egg since its a bit smaller and lighter than the eggs laid by my only other hen that has started laying. I checked for eggs this morning and admittedly could have missed it since it was tucked up close to the door but it certainly hasn't been there more than a day. The highs have been in the mid to high 70's. Should this egg be safe to eat?

Absolutely. I'd eat it.

Yes.

I would totally eat it without a second thought

As long as the shell is intact, it should be fine.

When in doubt....
Open eggs one at a time in a separate dish before adding to pan or recipe,
use your eyes, nose, and common sense to decide if egg is OK to eat.
