Default Hard-boiled egg question

Allright, this is another one of those funky questions that has you wasting time at work to try and figure out

I'm actually asking this for my sister who is also LCing - she's made breakfast easy by preparing egg salad the night before and taking it to work. She boils a massive amount of them on the weekend (about 20, yikes!). Problem is, when she peels them, they end up with most of the egg peeled with it. She gets pretty upset about this. She's tried boiling them a long time (last time she boiled them 2 hours!) and short time (20 minutes) and nothing seems to help. I heard that when the egg comes off the peel like that it means the eggs are very fresh. Anyone have any ideas how to avoid this?

I'm thinking it might be that she's boiling too many at one time but that's just my take on it.

Thanks!
Tam
