The FDA says 60 days. I have safely used eggs for scrambling past 90 days. 
As the egg ages, there is some breakdown of the proteins, so the white no 
longer "sits up" beneath the yolk when made sunny-side-up, and there is some 
dehydration through the shell, so the volumes can be somewhat off for 
baking.
