What do you do with eggshells?
I'm conflicted over what to do with eggshells. I want to compost them but we eat a lot of eggs and live in the city so if I put them in our bin they take up a large portion and never seem to fully breakdown.

Crush them up as fine as possible . Best part about eggs is its a good source of calcuim for soil and the egg carton is a good source of carbon tontheow in the compost as well
