I do in an egg boiler, cooks 7 at once. I then put them in the body of the fridge, not the door, and have had them there 4 days without any problems.

Eggs should be kept in the actual fridge & not in the door. This is down to the varying temperature when opening & closing the door which causes eggs to go off quicker.

Speaking of eggs...since I started this baking lark...I am using so many now...bought a dozen yesterday...off shopping in a moment...I need to buy more already.

We don't keep our eggs in the fridge normally, they aren't around long anyway! xx

We used to get them fresh from a farm out the road but they sold their hens on when the thing with bird flu was back the other year as they couldn't keep them outside with the rules and regulations so they were no longer 'free range' xx

Wow never heard that before Mark. Mine live in the door where less likely to get broken, time for a rethink

I keep them in egg boxes at the back of the fridge. Less likely to get broken that way.

OH has a cafe producing egg mayo for sandwiches and JPs. He boils up 3 or 4 at a time and stores them in door of fridge for up to 5 days, in accordance with food hygiene regs.
I then get to eat any left over that he is not allowed to sell.
So far with no ill effects
