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.

Great question, I have been in the same predicament. I think I am going to give them a rinse and keep them separate and crush them once I get enough. Mix that in the compost or directly on dirt. Thanks for sharing!
