Its does not have to be in one sitting. The hypothetical says you have 24 hours to do eat all the eggs. Meaning you could just do like 6 an hour for 12 hours or something like that.

You can spread it out over the 24 hours.

For example, 20 for breakfast, 10 for lunch, 10 for afternoon tea, and final 20 at night very close to midnight.

I’d advise drinking lots of water to get it down.

What’s a better number for hen eggs then? 100?

I’d personally struggle with even 5-7 eggs

I mean, in seriousness: if you cook those eggs right, you can probably get most of the moisture out of them.

At that point this is a much more manageable quantity of food. Wouldn't be fun to eat, but I imagine almost anyone could scarf them down.

The Eggscellent Challenge is probably easier than this. Except you have to choose the right hat if you manage to eat the entire thing in under 1 hour.

Not really - your average stomach can easily hold 50 eggs eaten in a single setting- and you gave us a gracious 24 hours.

As much as I hate eggs, yeah I'd do it. A couple days of feeling terrible for 60 million dollars? Sign me up. All you have to do is average 1 egg every 24 minutes.

Well, if vaporized egg material does not have to be eaten, what's stopping me from "accidentally" throwing 99% (Or 49%) of each egg into a blast furnace?
Granted, there is going to be a lot of soot, but if I have to reclaim that, you're probably also going to have to make up for the bits stuck in the pan and stuff.
Edit: Messed up percentages.

Plus the OP only complains about throwing up. Laxatives are apparently ok.

Risky strategy. Wouldn't you just eat as fast as you're comfortable with, avoiding the risk you fall asleep and miss the deadline?

It's why you should plan for a late start. Eggs for breakfast at 11, then continue on during the day, and see where you are at before you go to sleep.

If the number is manageable, just wake up at 9, have eggs for breakfast again. If the number is not manageable (more than 10 or so), eat some before you go to sleep until it gets manageable again. Hopefully avoiding stomach issues during the night.
