I have 12 dz eggs currently since everyone decided to get back into the swing of things at once so I'm going to do this but I'm not sure about giving the shells back to the girlsBrisk but sunny here today.
Has anyone preserved their eggs in lime solution? Is it safe to give shells from those eggs back to my flock, or is it safer not to do so?
Ha, mine too! Using the limed eggs for baking, mostly, since I hate to waste them after the girls put in the work laying and I preserved them.I have 12 dz eggs currently since everyone decided to get back into the swing of things at once so I'm going to do this but I'm not sure about giving the shells back to the girls
So sorry for you. I am Blessed to live out of the most of the snow belt. We have had Blizzards before but it has been quite a while since that has happened here. These last two winters have been great here so we have been extremely fortunate.6 inches here I'm not a fan
I preserve my eggs in water glass solution every year. I would not give the shells back to the girlsBrisk but sunny here today.

Thank you. Tossing them seems wisest to me, too.I preserve my eggs in water glass solution every year. I would not give the shells back to the girls
Or compost....Thank you. Tossing them seems wisest to me, too.
I would be afraid that the lime could mess up the compost. Maybe not but I toss mine. I save the normal shells to put in my garden but toss the lime onesOr compost....
I was thinking that it was similar to the lime, used on grass (calcium magnesium), but it's calcium hydroxide....not a chemist, so not sure what harm it would do.I would be afraid that the lime could mess up the compost.

Yes, this, and also my hens tend to get into the compost pile. Apparently it is their right to do so, or that is what they tell me...I would be afraid that the lime could mess up the compost. Maybe not but I toss mine. I save the normal shells to put in my garden but toss the lime ones
