Ask Edwina Currie.

Only way to find out is eat them.

I routinely keep cooked food in the fridge for a full week without any issues.

However, each to their own.

Make sure you have some Loperamide (such as Immodium) preparation to hand, and go for it!

Depends how long you'd had them before boiling them, but eggs do last a few weeks, so providing they were fresh no probs

Eggs are usually ok, you will know if there not when you start to peel them.

from my hens laying egg to my cooking it may be three weeks or more so they can keep for quite a while

never tried keeping a boiled egg that long, but if it's gone bad you'll know....it'll smell!!!!

If the egg is boiled while still in its shell, and there is no evidence of any cracks on the shell, then the contents inside is effectively sterilised.

Providing it is hard boiled then it should last for a week or more!
