How long can a boiled egg last in the fridge?

Cooked a couple today with my poached eggs to use them up but can't eat them all straight away.

Thanks
 
Not sure would think till the next day but I am iffy with food at best of times and like to eat it fresh or just when cooked.
 
A week should be fine, but no more that.
 
boiled eggs always smell bad, even worse a few hours after you've eaten them

put me down for a week in the shell
 
Goodness, I should think a week a bit too long. I would say if properly covered etc., they should be fine until the next day but no longer.

unshelled would be shorter.
there is probably some definitive food safety site somewhere.
raw ones have a month or so in a shell, so boiled and still in the shell should be good for a week.
 
Well, I boiled 3 eggs on Saturday, shelled them and refrigerated them overnight, took them on a 20 km hike on Sunday (ate one), put the remaining two back in the fridge, then ate them today (Wednesday) and they were fine.

in the Uk your fridge is probably warmer than outside
