They were still good. What's more my mother never put eggs in the fridge. She used to say that they are even better for baking when they are room temp. Perhaps because they were from naturally raised hens? I am not sure... I alse have eaten aggs that have been sitting in the basket for a four weeks, not refregerated at all. They were still good.
