In Europe they don’t. https://amp.businessinsider.com/why-europeans-dont-refrigerate-their-eggs-2018-4 How many eggs do you eat ? I most time have 3 eggs.

I was told that when hens lay eggs there is some king of mucus that dries and seals the shell and is best not to wash it off. If its really bad like covered in ***** I'll wash it. Usually they are clean like you see in the store. That’s what the daughter in law was advised to do when she first got the hens, and practices that procedure.

Another thing I've learned is that you cant make hard boiled eggs from fresh chicken eggs because you can't peel the shell properly. If you are trying to hard boil fresh eggs, some baking soda in the water could help (not a ton, a ½ teaspoon to a teaspoon per gallon).
