Egg white contains the protein avidin which inactivates biotin, but egg yolks contain so much biotin that the biotin binding process of the white is not significant. If you are concerned feed yolks only, or soft boil the whole egg.

I gave Archie a raw egg today and he loved it!

He played with it for ages and didn't seem to know he could crack it until he stepped on it by mistake and found a lovely surprise inside

He ate most of the shell too

Mine love eggs, either raw , boiled or scrambled

I'm glad someone has put this up, because I have always given mine raw eggs, and then the other day somebody told me I should only give them the yolk, but I will carry on giving them a whole egg now. Thanks for the info.

Cheers Shadowboxer - I do boil an egg once a week.
