cut in half and serve them up
cook them an extra minute or two if your worried about the shell needing to be sterilised ( I think that's your point )

I give mine jap quail eggs like this all the time ( when laying )
was confused cause i seen on web pages "when in kitchen put egg shells in microwave for 4 minutes to kill salmonella" was wondering if its same thing with boiled but will heat them up.

Thanks everyone for the help

I thought thats what you meant ... a good boil will be fine .

Just be careful feeding egg in this weather as it will go off really quick. I don't feed egg as I can't commit to changing it every few hours. Egg shells of course are fine once zapped/cooked.

Any fresh food needs to be taken out soon after serving in this heat ...
