Feeding quail eggs

So I just got a new Snow corn snake from a friend. He's healthy and eating just fine. I've been reading online about feeding them quail eggs. Me and my GF are very interested in this because I've never had a snake that eats eggs. My concern is storing them, how long can you have one before it needs to be discarded, or theoretically it hatched. Are there any ways to slow down this process, like storing in the fridge?

Also He only eats every couple weeks, and I've read they're not as nutritious as mice or rats are. However I'd like to offer a variety for him like he would be allowed in the wild. So should I feed him just one egg and a rat, or multiple eggs, or maybe feed him more often and just smaller portions. Just want to make sure he's being cared for properly!
