Even for eating, eggs will keep a lot longer than many folks think. For 
this use, I suspect they'll keep even longer so long as they don't 
explode. :-)
Eggs can be kept for camping events by sealing the eggs. The egg comes 
out already sealed but that layer is usually cleaned off during 
processing which opens the pores in the eggshell to the air. Waxing the 
egg or keeping it in waterglass have been historic methods of 
preserving eggs. For more info on this, see this Florilegium file:
