| Yes I feed mine scrambled every Sunday. I mix a 1/2 of a boiled egg in their food a couple times a week.

| I give mine a little bit of boiled egg white in the mornings with their homecooked food and on the weekends they get a little of the yolk also.

| I give mine a little eggs once in a while. I didn't know you could serve them raw. I thought they could get sick from that. I learn something new here all the time.

| Yep, there is a myth that the biotin in raw egg stops it from being digested, but this is just that, a myth and has been proven incorrect. The biotin is very good for them and raw eggs are a fantastic source of protein, they can even eat the shell. I feed my dogs both cooked and raw eggs. If your dog has a sensitive stomach or is very young (like less than 4 months) then cooked eggs can be better. IMO a mix of both in their diet is ideal.

| ok...Does anyone know how long eggs stay good in the fridge? I lose track of when I get them because we dont eat them much. Hubby says a long time. I always throw them out? Any ideas? PS do they last longer if you boil them?

| I always throw out the carton because my Fridge has a special holder. I never looked for a date on the carton. Duh me. Sometimes there are still old eggs and I mix the new ones in. I guess I better leave them in the cartons from now on.

| Well I bought some eggs a couple of days ago and it says best before 12th Sept, so I guess maybe a couple of weeks. But then I suppose it depends how long they have been in the store for |

| You can also buy just a half carton at a time now. You can boil them, leave the shells on and put them back in the carton and keep in the ref. for up to a month. I wouldn't chance feeding raw. Give 1/4 of a boiled egg a day with their breakfast or dinner. You can scramble in a tiny bit of olive oil and add some cheddar cheese. |
