Yes on refer when they come in the house, unless I know I'm eating eggs the next morning. Then I'll just leave out what I need and put the extras in with the others. The Gulag Girls have started up pretty regular again, not bad for 6 year olds. I only wash eggs if they've got a really good dose of scheidt on them. Three nest boxes in the coop, all three are laying in the same one. Seems to be a bit messier than when the first one started laying alone after the daylight came back. For those who say there's not much difference from commercial eggs to homegrown wandering chicken eggs, tell me which one is the store bought "free range" egg and which came from my hen.

No if they're not washed, yes if they are.

My hens are trained to come to the back door and lay an egg when called...

When I used to Hunt Whitetail in one of the first things I noticed in Mexico eggs weren’t refrigerated. Maybe in some of the enlarger stores maybe. I remember my Aunt raised a lot of chickens and sold eggs. She sold them unrefrigerated. I want to say I read somewhere some of the European counties don’t refrigerate eggs. I also read why they wash them here in the states but I don’t recall the reason.
Thanks, Billy

Unwashed. Unrefrigerated.
A dozen hens keep us overwhelmed in eggs.

How long will a washed, fresh egg last in the refer? If you want to wash them just put a coat of mineral oil back on and they'll last as long as unwashed eggs

We’ve had some questionable ones that peep when fried😂 Ha! when I had 7 hens and more than enough eggs for our use, I'd barter or give them away to friends. One of them didn't want any as once he got homegrown eggs and one of them had a little chicken fetus in it. Seems that can turn a fella off of fertilzed eggs.

If unwashed, I DON'T. If washed , yes I do refrigerate.
Yes we raise some chickens on the ranch. In the words of Dire Straits...that's how ya do it. Do you was the eggs before you cook with them? Fried, boiled or otherwise? I will admit, a smear of chickenschidt on an eggshell at ohdarkthutty is not appetizing...so I rinse the most egregious appearing. On the other hand, I keep in mind the 'ingredients' in various things like Vienna puppy peckers, potted meat, deviled ham etc...so I don't fret much about impurities on egg shells.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Yes on refer when they come in the house, unless I know I'm eating eggs the next morning. Then I'll just leave out what I need and put the extras in with the others. The Gulag Girls have started up pretty regular again, not bad for 6 year olds. I only wash eggs if they've got a really good dose of scheidt on them. Three nest boxes in the coop, all three are laying in the same one. Seems to be a bit messier than when the first one started laying alone after the daylight came back. For those who say there's not much difference from commercial eggs to homegrown wandering chicken eggs, tell me which one is the store bought "free range" egg and which came from my hen. Plan view" elevation view of a sort: You hit on something this thread had me wondering. Folks talking about not washing eggs like it's horrible. Personally, I'm not big on having chicken shìt on anything if it's avoidable. We don't have birds, most of our eggs come from a store. If we get non-store eggs, they go in the fridge. If they have shìt on them, we clean them. Store bought or not? Grew up mostly on farm eggs, now mostly store bought. There is a noticeable difference, but it's not what some make it out to be. Maybe if we had hens, I'd care more. And talk incessantly about how superior MY eggs are.

I worked in a grocery store as a teenager. Eggs were on a pallet in the warehouse. Un refrigerated. We put them in the cooler to sell.

Maybe if we had hens, I'd care more. And talk incessantly about how superior MY eggs are. With free range chickens and store bought eggs, big difference IMO. Here's a picture of 2 of our eggs and a store bought brown egg in the pan. So direct comparison, brown eggs to brown egg. Visually the difference is instant. Not just the color, but if you look at the whites, our eggs the whites are heavy and stay together, the white from the yellow egg is run all around the outside of the pan. Watery, bland, and taste like crap comparatively once you're used to different eggs. Again, my opinion but we got lots of comparisons when we were low on hens and had to buy, and it was no contest if you were blindfolded. I wont turn down eggs regardless, but given a choice, free range all the way. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/7hbfjZ7M/Egg-Comparison.jpg)
