I've heard you shouldn't eat eggs on the day they are laid, does anyone know why? Also can you eat the eggs raw or are you more likely to get salmonella? My kids like to eat raw cake mixture out of the bowl - should I stop them doing this? Thanks!!!

I've eaten my girls' eggs shortly (sometimes within minutes) after they were laid with no ill effect.

I think it depends what you want to do with the egg. If you want to hard boil it then it's better to leave it for 24 hours because they don't peel very well. That's the only thing I can think of that's been mentioned before. Don't know about the cake mix - I haven't done any baking for months

I also eat mine while still warm sometimes!!! As for the cake mixture I think all kids like it and unless they are eating the entire bowl they should be fine, if they are sick I imagine that the eggs would not be the culprit but the amount of mixture!

I find that with boiled eggs, the white doesn't solidify if it is eaten on the day it is layed. It doesn't really cause a problem here though - 21 eggs a week for one person means I am always catching up on last weeks eggs!

I've often eaten eggs still warm from the nestbox . Agree about the boiling very fresh eggs though, half the white comes away with the shell .

 

We all eat raw cake mixture and have had no ill effects . (I should say we're s"Ooops, word censored!"ing the bowls, not sitting down to a meal of it .)

 

I found this after a very quick Google about salmonella - don't know how accurate it is but it sounds about right to me!

 

Salmonella is the other primary concern associated with chicken and eggs. Again, this is an issue of cleanliness and chickens kept as pets are unlikely to cause any problems. In fact, Consumer Reports magazine reports that 71% of all supermarket chicken and eggs are contaminated with salmonella: eating your own backyard eggs, where you have control over the sanitation, significantly reduces your chance of exposure. In terms of exposure from pets, chickens are no more likely to carry it than parrakeets, and pet reptiles are far more likely culprits. Good hand-washing practices are always important after handling animals.

We eat our girls' eggs when they have just been laid.

 

We also lick the cake mix from the bowl. We have always done this since we were children and we figure that our eggs are better than any that we would have eaten previously.

Our poached eggs this morning were 10 minutes old! Yum!!

[hennymom]

we all eat our girls eggs very very fresh, sometimes straight from the hen! Im sure there is much less a risk of anything from your own hens eggs than the eggs sold in the shops...

My kids love to like the raw cake mix from the bowl off the spoons off the mixer bits and moan if i don't leave enough for them to fight over it has not harmed them yet!

Omlet hens and battery hens and a lot of others are vaccinated against salmonella I think. Not sure whether this would guarantee they won't have it though...
