Nev. Admin. Code § 583.100 - Terms descriptive of the shell defined

A shell egg is:

1. "Abnormal" if it is somewhat unusual or decidedly misshapen, lacks soundness or strength, or shows pronounced ridges or thin spots.

2. "Clean" if it is free from foreign material and from stains or discolorations that are readily visible. An egg may be considered clean if it has only very small specks, stains, or marks from a cage, which are not of sufficient number or intensity to detract from the generally clean appearance of the egg. Eggs that show traces of processing oil on the shell are considered clean unless otherwise soiled.

3. "Dirty" if it has dirt or foreign material adhering to its surface or has prominent or moderate stains in excess of those permitted for eggs of B quality.

4. "Practically normal" if it approximates the usual shape and is sound and free of thin spots. Slight ridges and rough areas that do not materially affect the shape and strength of the shell are permitted.
