    The ideal temperature for storing eggs depends on the stage of development and the intended use. Here are some general guidelines:<div>
    </div><div>Hatching Eggs</div><div>1. *Incubation Temperature*: 37.5-38°C (99.5-100.4°F) for optimal embryonic development.</div><div>2. *Storage Temperature*: 15-20°C (59-68°F) for short-term storage (less than 7-10 days) before incubation.</div><div>
    </div><div>Table Eggs</div><div>1. *Room Temperature*: 20-25°C (68-77°F) for short-term storage (less than 1-2 weeks).</div><div>2. *Refrigerated Storage*: 4-7°C (39-45°F) for longer-term storage (up to several weeks).</div><div>
    </div><div>Factors Affecting Egg Storage</div><div>1. *Temperature Fluctuations*: Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations, as this can affect egg quality and viability.</div><div>2. *Humidity*: Maintain a relative humidity of 50-70% to prevent moisture loss and promote egg quality.</div><div>
    </div><div>By controlling temperature and humidity, you can help maintain egg quality and viability, whether for hatching or table use.</div>
