Buying fresh eggs in Lagos is not always straightforward. Many eggs sold in markets and even some supermarkets are already old, low-quality, or handled poorly. This affects taste, nutrition, and even your health.
Here’s how to quickly spot fake or low-quality eggs—and how CleanBridge Farms helps you avoid them completely.
1. Check the Shell Strength
Fresh eggs have stronger shells.
If the shells crack too easily or feel thin, the eggs are either old or poorly produced.
2. Look at the Shell Texture
A good egg has a smooth, clean shell.
If it looks rough, dirty, spotted, or too shiny, it’s a sign of poor farm hygiene or old stock.
3. Do the Water Test
Place the egg in water:
- Fresh eggs sink
- Old eggs float
Most floating eggs in Lagos markets have been stored for weeks.
4. Check the Yolk Color
Fresh, healthy eggs have yolks that are:
- Deep yellow or golden
- Firm and rounded
If the yolk is pale, flat, or breaks easily, it’s a sign of poor feeding or poor storage.
5. Smell Test (For Cracked Eggs)
If there’s a strange smell when you crack the egg, even slightly, it is not fresh.
Good eggs have no smell at all beyond a natural, mild scent.
6. Beware of Mixed Crates
Some sellers in Lagos mix:
- Old eggs
- Cracked eggs
- New eggs
This makes the crate appear fresh, but half of it is bad. Always check randomly before buying.
7. Buy Only From Transparent, Direct-From-Farm Sources
The only reliable way to avoid fake or low-quality eggs is to buy from a trusted poultry farm in Lagos that supplies eggs directly and doesn’t use middlemen.
That’s where CleanBridge Farms stands out.
