I just watched a video about egg preservation with lime (pickling kind, but purchased in larger quantities at hardware store) in water. Presenter said that eggs might keep up to 8 months. Have you used this method before?

I don’t have chickens.

Thank you to Sister K for her input. I have not tried this yet. But my neighbor who told me about it grew up on a Chicken/Egg farm and said it worked well to almost two years of storage. But he did share that the second year they are better served for baking and such rather than scrambled like fresh.

But here is the deal, in a SHTF situation you are going to have to throw “taste” out the door. “Still edible” no matter what it tastes like will be the fine line of survival or not. Can’t have your cake and eat it too in a true survival situation...

I am going to give it a test because I do have Chickens. But personally we already make homemade pasta with eggs and Flour. Dry it good and vacuum pack it, and you are good to go for several years storage.
