They are fine. They will keep longer. In fact, they probably spent
a fair amount more time than that simply getting from the chicken
to you.

For more info on keeping eggs, including how to keep them unrefrigerated,
check this file in the FOOD section of the Florilegium:
egg-storage-msg   (16K)  2/ 7/02    Period and modern raw egg storage.

Hmmm. Okay, its not uploaded to the website yet.

Most of the info can be found in the (older) copy of this file online:
eggs-msg         (139K)  2/ 7/02    Egg storage. Recipes. Substitutions.
