Zusammenfassung:	An in-line egg handling system which provides a means and method for automatically handling eggs from the time they are laid by the chickens to the time that they are packed in cartons or cases for delivery to distribution centers which system is designed so as to maintain a high level of egg quality. The system comprises, in series, a conventional conveyor belt egg gathering system, an accumulator and aligner to feed the bulk eggs into channels for controlled movement of the individual eggs thereafter, an orienter, an oiler, a washer, a cooling and conditioning apparatus, and a conventional grading and packing machine which includes means for applying a second oiling to the eggs just before they are packed.
