I guess I was smart only getting 9 chickens, with up to 5 foster kids we eat about a dozen eggs a day.
But I have been told MANY times that giving the eggs or even the shells to the hens can cause them to become cannibals.
Is this not true?

I number the egg cartons. I started with 1 and then so on. I’m now up to number 98. Right now I have 12 dozen eggs in my refrigerator. I sell them to a few people, but some of these now have their own chickens. I have trouble giving them away because people say they don’t eat many eggs. I’m getting tired of eggs. I’ve been feeding the oldest ones back to the chickens. I keep the oldest ones on the top shelf and I fill up the highest numbered boxes. If I empty a box, I cross out the old number and write a new.
