Frozen, you have a couple of months -- perhaps more. In a cold fridge (<42F) you can keep they a day or three, covered tightly so they don't dehydrate too much, or pick up flavors from the other foods. Much more than that -- consider new eggs :}

I might think a day or maybe, two if tightly covered and kept in the refrigerator. Salmonella poisoning is serious and therefore, why you should not leave eggs or yokes out of refrigeration for any length of time longer than you have to. Best if used as soon as you open the egg. Answer is not professional, just years of cooking and assumming it has been refrigerated, that is. I have never gotten or made anyone sick based on common sense use of ingredients and taking into consideration their life expectency.
