Will these eggs be bad?

[Three Little Bunnies]

Hi!

So, the eight-year-old is responsible for collecting the eggs every afternoon. He hasn't done it for the past two days. It's over a hundred degrees every day. Will the eggs be fine to eat? I figure we will, since the chickens are 100º too?

Thanks!

If fertile, it is possible that the eggs may have started developing.

They're not fertile. My HOA doesn't allow roosters. If they were fertile, I would try to hatch these if there was a possibility of them surviving, but I have no broodies and no incubator.

Only 1 real way to find out - crack them open and use your eyes and nose to evaluate.

They'll be fine. I have a few hens that like to play hide n seek with their nesting spots and I routinely discover a few that have been out for 2 or 3 days and have never had an issue with their usability.
