Let me further explain: A fresh egg tends to stick to the shell when boiled due to its high acid content. As the egg ages, carbon dioxide and moisture inside the egg gradually leak out through the thousands of tiny pores in the shell. This lowers the acidity inside the egg and makes it less likely to stick to the shell when boiled. The contents of the egg also shrink slightly due to moisture loss. Air that diffuses into the egg through the shell creates a larger air cavity at the end of the shell, which further makes peeling easier. Avoid using the freshest eggs when boiling eggs and instead use those you've had for two or three days.
