I love eggs fresh from the farmer!! Here is what I do and it hasn't failed it -- you get perfect hard boiled eggs. In a pan put 6 cups water, one tablespoon salt, 1/4 cup vinegar. Bring to a boil and gently add eggs. Boil for 15 minutes and rinse with ice cold water. Let sit for 15 minutes to cool. You don't taste the salt or vinegar. Your eggs should peel perfectly. Couldn't believe it the first time I tried it.

I have chickens and when I boil eggs, I put them in a pot of cold water. I time them from when I turn them on instead of how long they boil. I cook them for 25 minutes total. When they are done I run them under cold water to cool them and the pot down and I cover them with ice. I let them sit for a few minutes in the ice and then peel. I almost never have a problem with them peeling, even if I boil them the day the chickens lay them.
