They’d be like chicken eggs but proportional to your size. It just happens regardless of if you’re planning to eat them or not. Taste would be very similar to chicken eggs.

Proportional to size… I’m ~36x the mass of a chicken (2.5/90 kg), so my eggs would be something like 2 .3 kg per egg. If the shell was 8% of the mass, it’s a LOT of egg holy crap.
Um idk, I guess I would be pretty hungry if I laid a giant egg every day
Women’s Health magazines be like:
“Skip eating your egg to lose up to 5lbs a week!”
Within the very same magazine “top 20 health benefits of eating your own egg”

Damn, Frank. That’s a hell of an egg you’re laying. Kudos.
I mean chickens (and other egg laying animals) will eat their own eggs to recuperate the energy, so it certainly seems like the smart thing to do :3. I mean an egg of that size every day would really require you to increase intake of both calories and various minerals
Putting egg shells into chicken feed is a good way to recycle that calcium. But you gotta crush them first cause chickens are stupid as hell and if they learn that their eggs are edible they’ll just eat them right away.
Yep! :3
We give our egg shells to the lady we buy our eggs from lol, so I have partaken in that sort of calcium recycling scheme
How do I delete someone else’s Lemmy account?
On somethingawful you could pay to have other accounts suspended, we need this.
A large egg coming out of my ass? I’m not sure I would enjoy this.
don’t knock it until you tried it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
How about this?
You mean you haven’t tried Bad Dragon’s ovipositor collection yet?
They don’t generally come from there, but given the choice… I’d go with ass every time.
Wait until you hear about the cloaca.
Why is ass the better choice? Genuinely curious.
My thinking is that a vagina is way more stretchy and could handle an egg that big a lot better than the rectum would. And no risk of hemorrhoids vaginally afaik.
I don’t have one of those. Also, just because it might be nice.
Oh right… the secret third option! My bad
If I’m not reproducing I need to re-absorb all that protein somehow. There’s a reason so many mammals eat the afterbirth aka the placenta.
You’re bringing me back to seeing my cat give birth as a child. Aghast doesn’t cover it. It was good learning though.
Please never post again
Eat the eggs…? That seems like a waste. I mean, sure, for an occasional snack but I’d wait until the mini-me hatched and have a succulent meal later. If you’re laying one every day and were patient you could feed an army. Which I would have because I’d only eat every other off-spring and the others would be the foundation of the new Imperial order.
If you’re letting your mini mes live you could just keep 5 or so trapped and steal their eggs for dinner.
You’re hired!

Do you eat your own cum now?
Occasionally ❤️
No.
Shit no. Chickens that peck at their own eggs have major problems, either psychological/stress or nutritional.
Maybe ask a woman what her period tastes like and after you get kicked in the nuts so hard they bounce off the roof of your mouth, you’ll know the flavor of reproductive material one way or another.

It would be nice to have something come out of my butt that tasted good. 🤔
Pretty sure it would be something coming out of your cloaca that tasted good. About time.
I’d go to the nearest doctor/secret government experiment facility/mad scientist, and ask them to figure out what the hell is happening.
It’s normal and everyone’s laying eggs
It’s hard to picture, as a real human who grew up eating eggs and not laying them. Since the human race has always faced the threat of starvation, I expect the cultural norm would have developed a long time ago that eating your own eggs is perfectly natural and normal. A taboo against eating them would be a serious disadvantage during a famine. We would grow up with many cultural influences about the eggs. Religious texts like the bible would no doubt make moral pronouncements many people would follow without question. It might even be a political issue.
No. It would feel weird.
Do women drink their own milk? No?
Hmmm
No?SometimesWhy sometimes?
The child (and/or husband) may be the primary recipient
I could be wrong but I think Entropy means this is a net loss in nutrients and calories, based on the waste it took to produce the egg. The building-blocks needed to make it were already there and if my body needed it it would’ve taken them directly so I probably wouldn’t…? Unless I was starving, which presumably egg production would also decrease to begin with.
But this reminds me of something.
We have bacteria in our colons that produce bio-available B12 but this is downstream of the absorption point. I remember reading theories that we originally obtained this B12 from unsanitary food and water sources (river, pond water, fecal-matter on foods in wild, etc.) Surprisingly a significant chunk of those who eat meat are also deficient of B12 in the modern age.
Entropy deals with energy. The concept you’re looking for is conservation of mass. It does in fact work like that. It’s not an unusual practice for humans to eat their placenta after giving birth.
And if you wonder how conservation of energy comes into play here, the total
everyenergy would also remain the same. Usable energy would decrease.
