Copied from a Chicken companies website on chicken facts.

**Did you know commercial egg farmers have 30 days from the day an egg is laid to get it to stores. Then, the stores have another 30 days to sell the eggs. The USDA recommends a maximum of 5 weeks in your refrigerator before you discard your eggs. What does this all boil down to? On April 1, you could be eating an egg that was laid on Christmas

That is awful. This is why I can't wait for my hens to start laying

Just keep breathing, Missy. Once they are grown, you can't make their decisions for them, as much as you might like to. When is the wedding going to happen?

@Robin regarding the age of eggs, I am guilty of eating some pretty old eggs. You'll find they are good a LOT longer than the 5 week discard suggestion. I have eggs that a friend gathered and gave me sitting on my counter that I have been slowly going through for 6 weeks. I have tossed about 3 that didn't pass the float test. (I don't know how long they sat on her counter before she gave me a mess because she had so many.) As for store-bought, well, I had some I bought on sale and neglected that stayed in my fridge that kept milk frosty and froze lettuce for four months (you can freeze eggs). The thing is, the farm/backyard eggs taste better, no matter how old they are.

I didn't know about the float test. I will have to start doing that. I do know that sometimes there will be strange spots on our store bought eggs. Thank you Eclecktic1 for the information.

Our little would be twin died quietly this afternoon. I know it's nature, but I hate how it struggled. Lesson learned: I probably will think more critically when I set eggs & see that one weighs a full 10 grams more than the others.

I have 6 little peepers under the brooder plate & no action in the maxi. Kind of bummed & now being goat roped into going to a cocktail party. Boooooooooo
