Make a hard egg bounce you need is a big bowl, vinegar, and two through three eggs (put in three just in case one is not strong enough to bounce). Pour the vinegar in the big bowl. Next, put the two or three eggs in the big bowl with vinegar. Now don't get curious but leave the eggs in the same spot with out moving them for 1 month (you could move the bowl some where safe). After a month, get a hard plate and drop one of the eggs into the plate. The eggs should feel wet, it should look a little bit pink, and make sure that you don't drop the egg from a high distance away from the plate.Your results should be a bouncy hard egg.
