Recycle Egg Shells by feeding them to the birds

[GOP4USA]

What temp setting is best? And for how long?

Interesting tip. I learned to put them in your garden so the plants and thus us can get the calcium back. But this is nice too. I wonder if this would be a good trick for laying hens to get even better eggs for human consumption...

What an excellent idea! I'm going to do this!

Cool.. I'm guna try this :)

Don't feed them to birds!!! lol. You use them for your vegetable gardens. Preferably tomatoes to prevent blossom end-rot.

Excellent - good use of resources! I'm afraid I'm too set in my ways, I always just put them in my worm farm, which is easiest for me:) But I do often wonder about where my shell grit comes from.

do you have to use fossil fuels to dry your eggs? maybe you could just lay them out in the sun?

I bake them when I have the oven on for other reasons. I have never tried using the sun. If you try it, let me know how it works.

cool!

my worms love them too. I find them in a ball inside the eggs a lot. But in the Spring, a better use for them is giving them to the birds so you'll have plenty of healthy babies.

Question though? Feeding eggs to birds! Isnt that a form of canibalism? LOL Just kiddin.
