An egg can be fresh or several weeks old when you buy it. The best way to test for freshness is to put the eggs in a bowl of water. If the egg lays flat it is fresh, if it trys to stand on edge it is less fresh, but still okay. If it trys to float, do not use it.


How can you tell how old is my parkeet?

You can tell that your parakeet is old by looking at the rings on it's head. If there are a lot of black rings that go around it's head, it is younger. If your parakeet has little rings unlike this one, it's older. This parakeet has almost a white head which means it is older.
