I have hear of people freezing eggs but have never personally tried it. Thank you for the info.
Freezing Eggs for later / how to test eggs to make sure they are still good
Ok... So your refrigerator is FULL of more eggs than you can eat, what do you do with them?
1. First I would check them to make sure they are still good. Get a large bowl or pot, fill it with cold or look-warm water and carefully place one egg at a time in the water. If the egg sinks it's GOOD, if it FLOATS it's BAD.
It's just that simple.
2. Next Take a few eggs and scramble them. Then add them to an ice cube tray and freeze them. you could also add just the egg whites or an egg white with yolk. once they are frozen place them in a DATED freezer bag in your freezer.
then this winter when your chickens stop laying you will still have enough eggs for cooking and eating. Make sure you take out a few the day before to defrost, just put what you need back in an ice cube tray to defrost.

OR you can give away your extras ....or SELL them.
In the Winter....I STILL get enough eggs for my own use.
( It helps "Winter-Laying" IF you'll extend the "daylight" by adding a light-bulb on a timer set to come-on a couple of hours before natural Sunrise.)
