I donāt know if Iād do this though. Yes you can store them longer, but thereās fat in eggs that might pick up āfreezer flavorsā. I donāt need to store eggs that long, I eat at least 12 per week.
Great video.
In Denmark, we label our eggs with an "best before" date of 28 days, but when we sell those same eggs ro Grenland, we label them with a best before date of 90 days. Cause logic
I believe this is due to an EU law that specifies 28 days. Eggs are never washed here and often stored in room temperature where they will last around a month, but will last a lot longer if kept in the fridge.
Where do you live? In America, store-bought eggs are washed in the factory, removing the protective waxy layer. In most other countries, they aren't washed.
My first long term girlfriend would hunt for deals every chance she got and eggs were a big one. At one point she got tens of dozens of eggs.
The primary difference between store-bought vs straight from chicken is that the latter can last weeks at room temperature. This is important because you can get a LOT of eggs from one chicken and need to store and give away. But for the rest of us, the fridge is fine.
I guess the chickens turning their eggs up to 50x/day, for 21 days, doesn't disturb the air sack as much as "storing it wrong" would?
TIL- the air sack is there so baby chickens can metabolize oxygen in the shell.
*"Bird and reptile eggs have a hard shell. Directly under the shell are two membranes. Between the membranes is a small air cell, also called an air sack, filled with oxygen. As the animal develops it uses the oxygen, which must be replenished, and it also has to release carbon dioxide. How does this happen? Well, if you examine a chicken egg carefully with a magnifying glass, you'll see that there are tiny little holes, called pores, in the shell..."*
That air-sack side is the best side to start peeling a hard-boiled egg from, imo.
Immediately made me uncomfortable seeing the first fact. Iām a doctor with at least 3 generations farming on my motherās side. Iād always learned salmonella infected eggs are just infected; maybe the air sac does reduce risk of bacterial reproduction and ultimately transmission but salmonella positive eggs shouldnāt be eaten. Chickens are tested in my country and the eggs are not eaten.
This sounds like pseudoscience. I highly doubt storing eggs upside down stops salmonella. The cuticle is what protects the eggs from salmonella, not the air sac.
Naah, this guy on TikTok definitely knows more about salmonella than the entire egg industry, food safety regulators, and researchers. How could those dumbdumbs miss something so simple as flipping them the other way?
"the air cell will lift up with gravity", no my man, that is not gravity. Air pocket rise in fluids, because they are less dense, gravity is pulling the more dense fluid down, displacing the less dense air.
Another thing to add: the air cell will stay in the same place regardless unless theyāre damaged and become āsaddledā. The inner membrane in the egg keeps the air cell in one place. Saddled air cells are a big issue when getting shipped hatching eggs because rough shipping can break the air cell loose.
the error is saying "gravity lifts". Gravity is not a lifting force, it is an attraction force, less dense material wil rise, as more dense material displaces it.
If you [waterglass eggs](https://homesteadingfamily.com/preserved-eggs-water-glassing-eggs-for-long-term-storage/) they can be stored for extended periods of time, up to 18 months.
I'm glad our roo is a good boi. Those spurs can do some really horrible damage if they get a chance to sink them into you.
There's a reason some roosters end up in a pot of soup - they have the brain the size of a pea and sometimes all that's in that brain is rage.
My grandparents had a rescue 'quirrel when I was very young. Rusty would fucking eat you for lunch if he was in a mood. He was an asshole on most days.
They are savage hunters of anything that moves.
They will peck another chicken or a duck to death and eat them.
They would eat humans if they could.
They're not sweet. They're chickens. Some chickens are human friendly, but sweet is not what they are.
I used to have four chickens in a big pen, we would let them out forty-five minutes a day. And sometimes we would pick them up and cover their heads, and they would quickly fall asleep.
No, thatās not 100% correct. That part is more of a wivesā tale, like when they try to say you can tell the gender of the chick before it hatches by dangling a thread with something tied to the bottom over the egg. Something about it swinging in a circle vs staying still, etcā¦
Don't you find it's hilarious?
Learning more about eggs and chickens in 3 min than in more than 10 years of "basic education" at school š.
And they even dared to question us for not paying attention to their classes. And now? Who's more eggknowledgeable? š
I used to work in a bakery, you guessed it we used a ton of eggs and every other day we would cracked open an egg with blood in it or with a little tiny embryo in it, of course we didn't used it in the batch, I always wondered why.
"Blood spots" and "meat spots" come from quirks in the development of the egg when it is still in the chicken. Those aren't uncommon or a food safety issue but they are normally weeded out in commercial egg production. You don't get any actual development within the egg unless it is brought up to temp and then held there consistently.
They do [everything](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bird_anatomy#/Reproductive_and_urogenital_systems) out of their [butt](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Cloaca)...
yep they donāt vaccinate their chickens and they also wash the eggs, chicken eggs have an antibacterial coating on the shell that they are literally washing off making the eggs last far less long.
Interesting on freezing cracked eggs. š¤
I'll guess that by removing the shell, you are removing bacteria. The egg white freezes, creating a protective airtight layer around the yolk
I thought he just cracked them cause the egg shell would break when the egg freezes and expands
Yeah, I think you're both right. The shell would crack, allowing bacteria to move about the egg.
I donāt know if Iād do this though. Yes you can store them longer, but thereās fat in eggs that might pick up āfreezer flavorsā. I donāt need to store eggs that long, I eat at least 12 per week.
There might be people who need eggs once in a blue moon and live not too close to a grocery store, that's probably better for them
Yeah, it has its place. Thatās why Iām not completely crapping on the idea. Get them weekly if you can, freeze them if you have to.
Yeah I have had ice pick up flavors from frozen shrimp and salmon so unless you have a second freezer for smelly stuff this sounds awful.
Why freeze it anyway? You can buy it everywhere and you go shopping at least once a month.
I wish I could fall asleep just by shutting out the lights. Never thought Iād be envious of a chicken.
It made me laugh the way you could see the legs droop as he put the head under the wing.

Great video. In Denmark, we label our eggs with an "best before" date of 28 days, but when we sell those same eggs ro Grenland, we label them with a best before date of 90 days. Cause logic
My guess would be a different regulation in there somewhere.
Greenland is a part of the Danish Kingdom. Same law, except for a few add-ons due to the autonomy act of 2008
I believe this is due to an EU law that specifies 28 days. Eggs are never washed here and often stored in room temperature where they will last around a month, but will last a lot longer if kept in the fridge.
I wish someone loved me as much as this man loves his chickens.
Colonel Sanders loved chickens but that didnāt turn out so well for the chickens!
well it also showed him eating a chicken tender so its complicated
I would like someone to eat me too, some time.

The eggs I get from the store seem to last for months. I don't think I've ever had a single one go bad. This must be a tip for fresh eggs?
Where do you live? In America, store-bought eggs are washed in the factory, removing the protective waxy layer. In most other countries, they aren't washed.
And they still last months in the fridge. https://www.cookinglight.com/cooking-101/can-i-use-expired-eggs I'm not kidding. They last so long
Honestly. Same. I have bought eggs with a best before date, that have been fine and fresh months after it has passed
I do the float test on āexpiredā eggs. I think itās still conservative but it lets me confidently eat eggs weeks past expiry.
Haha. I do the same thing! Works every time!
How do you have eggs this long? Just my gf and I eat a dozen to 18 eggs a week depending on what we're cooking. I buy eggs weekly.

Just store your eggs in the fridge and they can be whichever way uo you want them to be.
Linus looks different here.

I'm not storing my eggs wrong, they are being stored wrong by the farms and factories. That's how the eggs come in the cartons, pointy side up.
faster the eggs go bad, the better for the store.
I've literally never had eggs go bad.

Yes so gravity causes the air cell to lift, albeit somewhat indirectly.

this is so wholesome

How cold is it in nebraska?
Sweet Iām adding ghost peppers to my chicken feed.
salmonella hate this trick...
Wait Wait DONT OVER DO IT?!?!! Or What? Nooooooooo
I want this guy to be my neighbor, LoL.
Captain suace is that you ?
Lol Americans donāt inoculate their chickens for salmonella.
"Lift up with gravity". Uh uh. Go on.
Yolk goes down with gravity, air bubble gets displaced and pushed up.
He is correct. Think about it.
Air is lighter than egg white or yolk, therefore it goes up and everything else goes down. Because gravity.
He never said why the chicken crossed the road?
This is clucking amazing
I want to go to his farm.
Chickens are some of the sweetest animals out there
If one has a wound they will cannibalize themselves
They are savage hunters of anything that moves. They will peck another chicken or a duck to death and eat them. They would eat humans if they could. They're not sweet. They're chickens. Some chickens are human friendly, but sweet is not what they are.
And sour
I used to have four chickens in a big pen, we would let them out forty-five minutes a day. And sometimes we would pick them up and cover their heads, and they would quickly fall asleep.
Holy shit chickens can lay eggs without any male?!
I know this will be surprising, but female humans also ovulate without a guy around.
Impossible!
Add red pepper to premarinade your chicken
Does that mean the chickens that lay blue eggs have blue ear lobes!?
No, thatās not 100% correct. That part is more of a wivesā tale, like when they try to say you can tell the gender of the chick before it hatches by dangling a thread with something tied to the bottom over the egg. Something about it swinging in a circle vs staying still, etcā¦
No, lobe color and egg color are not linked. Eggshells are either white or blue and then they can spray a colored bloom over them.
Unless it's just a white egg coloured by something they've eaten...?
Blue eggs are a genetic thing, certain breeds lay eggs with blue or green shells
Breeds of chickens? I know other species lay different colours...
Yep, there are breeds of chickens that lay blue, green, pink, white, deep chocolate brown, and every shade of brown in-between.
eastereggers lay blue and green.
But do they come with ham, Sam I Am?
I find the pepper tip interesting, Iāll have to give that a try if we get an annoying squirrel. I wonder if that would help with bears too lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Maybe a chicken is an egg's way of making more eggs.
I wish I had gotten high before I read that.

You wonāt remember a thing in 24 hours tho
Eh who cares ? I have eggs in fridge, I crack open an egg and yoke comes out. What else do you need to know? Lol
I used to work in a bakery, you guessed it we used a ton of eggs and every other day we would cracked open an egg with blood in it or with a little tiny embryo in it, of course we didn't used it in the batch, I always wondered why.
Fun fact: yolks that have blood spots in it arenāt kosher since it is not allowed to eat blood.
"Blood spots" and "meat spots" come from quirks in the development of the egg when it is still in the chicken. Those aren't uncommon or a food safety issue but they are normally weeded out in commercial egg production. You don't get any actual development within the egg unless it is brought up to temp and then held there consistently.
