I decided that I would really like an egg skelter now that we have our own eggs, as it means we can store them in order of when they are laid and we will always take them in the correct order, for our own use or to give as gifts. It fits sideways on a shelf in the fridge, so doesn&#8217;t take up too much room and will hold about twenty four eggs.<\/p>\n<p>I know not every one agrees with keeping eggs in the fridge but what I have read is, that fresh eggs will keep for three times as long in the fridge and if you know you are going to use them fairly quickly it&#8217;s fine not to fridge them but as my eggs will build up and I will be giving some away as gifts, I want to know that they will last as long as possible. The trick is to take them out of the fridge to reach room temperature before cooking for the best results.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2467\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=2467\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2467\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2467\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2467\" alt=\"My egg skelter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/egg_skelter.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/egg_skelter.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/egg_skelter-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2467\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My egg skelter<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I am really pleased with this purchase and every time I go to the fridge and see the different coloured eggs on the skelter it makes me smile.
