our first egg...?

[Princessfarmer]

We found our first egg today....its was pretty small..from a decent sized americauna...i don't know what to do with it now...leave it on the counter or put it in the fridge? Any suggestions?

You can do either. Leave it on the counter will not hurt anything, and I'm pretty sure you can leave them out for at least a week or so.

Neither. EAT IT! It will be the best egg you have ever eaten

Congratulations!

if you're asking if you can eat it, yes you can

if you're asking whether you should cherish it and put it under your pillow as a keepsake - no you shouldn't

if you're asking how long you can keep them without refridgeration, i have read 3-4 weeks unwashed (when you wash, you wash off the flora that is preventing the bacteria from entering).

Thank you everyone....I did eat it....lol I couldn't help it...

I'm getting my first eggs (for about 5 days now) and they're tiny! I was concerned but asked on this forum and they said small at first is pretty normal! They'll get bigger.
