    Eat them well within a week. Keep in an airtight container so the fridge doesn't stink up.

    I honestly do not know the right answer, but from experience, it depends. If you shell the egg, and it is at room temperature, a couple of hours max (it will get all sweaty and gross) If you made them into egg salad or deviled eggs, not very long, 1-2 hours, just me cause of the mayo that is in it. If it is still in the shell, I am guessing a day or two, I don't really like warm eggs so I have never really waited long to eat them, or I have refrigerated them. But if the shell is cracked, you would have to use it a.s.a.p. because air can get at the egg itself and it could stink and turn crusty. I know that pickled eggs can last for months with out being refrigerated in a dark place. (unless you crack the seal of the jar) I hope that this helps.
