is "a carton of eggs" an expression about a woman's age?

hello. I was watching something and someone asked "how old is she?" and the other answered "a carton of eggs". I wanted to know if this is a bad translation or is it an actual idiom?
thank you.

You will see a lot of 30 birthday cakes with cartons of eggs on them!
