Feeding hens cooked eggs?

[MissAbbyStreet]

Yes? No??
I've heard this is good for the hen, nutritionally, but it seems really weird to me..

I just can't seem to wrap my head around this concept and whether it's good for them to eat or not...

I feed my girls eggs all the time. Sometimes I am lazy enough to boil the eggs and mash, shells and all and give them to the girls.

My chickens LOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVE scrambled eggs!

Its really good protein for them, especially when they are molting like they are now.

I blew eggs the other day and scrambled the eggs for my hens and they loved it!

I boil them and then blend them up with shells and all in my magic bullet. They love them. They are a really good source of protein for them. Just don't let them eat them without mashing them up, or they may start eating their eggs that they lay.

i made them scrambied eggs with crushed in shells for breakfast.. they didn't take much interest in em

bummer

Eggs are fabulous protein for a chicken, as they are for you. Scrambled, hardboiled, etc. It's all good.
