Vacuum pack or seal and refrigerate seems the way to go. We keep'em in the carton refrigerated long past the "use by" date and haven't cracked a bad one . . . yet. I may vac seal some and let'em stay for several months just to see. In a SHTF situation sealed in a root cellar might be the best bet it seems.

I do the same thing geron and I've never had any problems either...yet.

I heard that the coating the egg has when it comes out is a great way to preserve eggs for upto a month I think it was, maybe more.
Basically keeps out any bacteria and doesn't even need to be regrigerated. I'll have to try and find it again.

The lady would coat them in oil and said they would keep up to 9 months.

And if I remember Dink said something about Do NOT wash until ready to use Yup...use a dry scrubber and GENTLY remove any dirt or poo. if they are very dirty, go ahead and wash them and use them first. Unless you are going to hatch them, and in that case, do NOT wash them and do NOT refridgerate them. I want to figure out how to dehydrate them safely!

I think I've heard of scrambling them first the dehydrating. Have to do some research. Best I remember most recommend buying eggs already dehydrated or powdered.
