"EGG"sactly How Many Carbs?

I recently read a thread and I'm a bit confused. One person reported that there is 1 gram of carb p/egg; and another person reported that there are 6 grams of carb p/15 eggs. Whats the "egg"sact carb count? Anyone know?

According to Calorieking.com a jumbo egg (2.3 ounces) is 0.5 carbs.

I use extra large ones myself.

Most people calculate (if they count eggs at all, I don't) 0.4 gr. carbs in a small(ish) egg & 0.7 in a large egg.
