The more air they get the less fresh they are, so super fresh have no air and sink

If not sure you ought-ter, then place it in water. If it lies on its side, then it's fresh; eat with pride. ... . . After three or four days, at an angle it lays. But, it still is a treat, so go on and eat. ... . . Ten days, stands on end, in your baking 'twill blend. 'Cause it's definitely edible, in your baking, incredible. ... . . But, if it floats on the surface, that egg serves no purpose. 'Cause a floater's a stinker! Out the back door best fling 'er!

just a thought for the next lot of eggs you buy - write the date (from the lid of the box) on the eggs before you put them away.
