What do I do?

A bowl of them out of the elements helps you see when they need refilling, and there's not as much waste as tossing oyster shells on the ground. Your chickens though, do what works for you.

They dump the bowls or poop in them

I have had this same problem with my young pullets, just those crazy teenage hormones as someone said.

Make a dish. It is easy to secure a coffee can that you have cut a large opening in. A sour cream container or other plastic dish can be screwed to a stud in the coop.

If the dish is large put a brick or large heavy rock in then fill around that with oyster shell. It makes it much harder to tip.

This worked great for me...32 oz plastic salsa jar, reuseable ziptie attached to hardware cloth.
