You can judge the age and health of the egg by dropping it in a body of water. A fresh egg will sink and lie flat on the bottom of the glass, slightly older will bob a little bit, still older will stand on the end and a rotten egg will float on the surface! Fresh eggs' shells are rough and chalky while old eggs' shells are smooth and shiny.
