More than 150 million poultry birds have been killed across the U.S. since 2022 , part of an effort to limit the spread of H5N1 bird flu.

Experts say the risk of bird flu to the general public is still low and that they're "confident in the safety of the food supply" The USDA says to never purchase an egg that's cracked.

As eggs age, the shell becomes more porous so more air is able to flow through.

Freeze raw eggs, just not in their shell because they will expand and break.

Frozen eggs keep best for two to three months , but can last up to a year in the freezer.

Farm fresh eggs can be refrigerated for up to six months .
