We refrigerate in bulk in the basement refrigerator, but will
sometimes take a half dozen and leave them out in the kitchen until
they are used up in a couple of days. .

Talked to a military veteran the other day. He said the cooks stored the eggs in refrigerated pans of water. The good fresh eggs laid on the bottom. When the eggs got older they stood straight up. These were used first making cakes..pies..bread etc. When the eggs float to the top that is a sign of a bad egg. Sounded reasonable.

I read this years ago, and it's still one of the best articles on
preserving eggs:
