Obvious solution: Give them to Okuu.

Cook them.

Eggs are concentrated nutrition from the body of the "mother". (if that's the right word for the layer of an egg that has no life within...) In nature, unfertilized eggs are eaten by the "mother" so as to reclaim them.

I think this is the best solution:

I just imagined a human version of your statement.. ..and throw up.

The closest thing to a "human version" of laying eggs is to eat the single cell of an unfertilized egg, which you wouldn't even recognize happening. If you're talking about periods, there isn't equivalence there, as the egg is the nutrition that would have gone to the fetus, which in a mammal comes directly from the mother through the uterine wall.

Which is why, after human childbirth, it's normal for the mother to eat the placenta of their newborn baby as a way of regaining the nutrients that would otherwise have been lost.
I've heard you normally cook it up into something like an omlette first to make it more palatable.

Dunno if I'd call it "normal" under any of the word's definitions, but there isn't much evidence to whether it has any effects at all. Not that I'd ever have the option of making the decision myself, but I think I'd rather just eat a proper regular meal or two to nutritionally compensate than what amounts to my own body's discarded waste filter, but then people eat liver too.

I can imagine doing it if you're an animal in a situation where the difference of a meal could kill you, or the equivalent impoverishment of some humans, but otherwise, nah.
