"Eggshells are actually (usually) good for them because of high calcium content."
Given that producing eggs must use up a bunch of calcium, this makes sense, in a "circle of life kind of way
Seeing your reply in my inbox reminded me that I got up to get some ice-cream, but forgot again en route to the freezer. On the bright side, it means I still have ice-cream in my freezer
