Hi - I've always just crackled up the eggs' shells we use and feed em back. They seem to disappear, more or less. But I noticed recently someone actually using a food processor to pulverize them and add the powder to the feed. Is this necessary? Maybe... answered as a function of whether you've got calcium/new eggs problems? I don't so... don't bother reinventing a wheel that's rolling? As it were? Or is there a compelling reason to do this. tia.
