First make sure all eggs are free of dry debris like poop, feathers, and wood shavings or dust but do NOT wash them!

Next, using a quart jar, fill it with water then add 1 ounce of pickling lime. Regardless of what size or how many jars you decide to use, the ratio will remain the same:

1 quart of water to 1 ounce of pickling lime

Use the kitchen scale to measure out 1 ounce of lime. Add the lime to the water in the quart jar and using the whisk, mix carefully but well.

Using another quart or half gallon jar, add about half the solution to the new jar.

Now slowly and carefully add in your eggs to the mixture. It helps to tilt your jar so the eggs don't drop into the water solution so hard and fast which could cause an egg to break or crack. Add the eggs in by putting the pointed tip of the egg in first with the fat side of the egg up.

Secure a lid to your jar and write the date on it. Lastly, store the jar in a cool, dark place like a pantry or cabinet until your hens reduce or stop laying you really want some farm fresh eggs!
