Hi Nick,

I tried to find the info on eggshells as we had this discussion on another forum. I can’t find it, but yes, they are essentially all calcium plus essential minerals and if you use the entire eggshell, it throws off the calcium/phosphorus ratio. That’s why you dry the egg and grind it up. I’m including a couple of other links regarding eggshell as they really need to be cooked to kill the possible bacteria, particularly if you store them.

This is a good site for recipes as well. This is the calcium discussion:

This is a cat site but it discusses the calcium/eggshell quantity:

Good Luck with it! 🙂
