If the eggs in the nest are more than a week old, I just put them in water to see if they float in water. If they float, they're no good. If they start to turn upward like they want to float, you're taking chances. If they're dead still and don't float at all, then they're fresh.

How long will fresh eggs last. Will they last longer if they are not washed?

Fresh shell eggs should maintain their quality under refrigeration for 4-5 weeks. I have kept shell eggs longer than that and they have been just fine, but the yolk flattens out and the white becomes more runny. Washing does remove the protective 'bloom' layer and some feel that it does affect keeping quality.
