Look for an expiration date on the cartoon. If you can't find one, go ahead and throw them out since you don't know how long they were on the shelf at the store...better safe than sorry.

Egg shells actually are porous, so they're both drying out and absorbing odors as they age. If they've been kept in the original container in the fridge which is at the correct operating temp, you can eat them for several weeks after the "expiration" date. That's actually the date at which they have to stop selling them. Boiled eggs keep for about 10 days in the fridge, but if these are already a bit aged, I'd make that a bit shorter.

Usually more than a month. depends on how old they were when you bought them.
You can test for freshness before use by submerging in water. good eggs lay on the bottom, bad one float. Learned this in culinary school.
You can remove them from the shell and freeze. I recommend portion sizing for baking or scrambled and freezing.

If they are not broken they will last 6 months. They are sealed. They keep them that long on an air craft carrier.
