Yes It is not a good idea but they get calcium from the shells of eggs but if the hen who laid the egg is sick it could be passed to the chickens who eat that shell. Better to get commercial feed that has proteins and calcium with the right mix. Some farms still boil up the eggs they don't want and feed them back to the flock shell and all. If your birds get the occasional raw egg it shouldn't hurt them.
