Sell them, it's not too good to eat too many eggs, Better still -donate to food bank

we live in a rural town, so although i have a sign at the gate to sell them, so does almost everyone. can't donate to food back as they only take packaged goods. i do give them away to friends by the doz, but still have loads left.

Make your own pasta - that uses 6 eggs per batch. Some rich choccie cakes use 8+ eggs. Made bacon and egg pie for dinner 2 nights ago - 10 eggs. Poached eggs for brekie or lunch mmmm

Have a bake-up and freeze lots. Really useful exercise closer to Christmas. I'm sure that I've also read where someone posted on here about freezing eggs in containers- without the shells!

Well you could store them for a while then throw them at the ex ha ha. Is it possible you could take them into town every so often and get a business, social club or club to sell them.

Ask a cook- the quickest way to separate an egg is to break it in your hand and let the white slip through you fingers. After a bit of practice you only need one hand for the whole procedure.

Haha my old flatmate was a chef and HATED it when he saw people do that. He said people got crucified in the kitchen if they were caught doing it! Just use the shells and tip the yolk from one half to the other while releasing the white - easy peasy! :)
