I've made egg noodles my whole life. Yep I leave them laying on the counter, table, draped on the back of chairs etc. It usually only takes a couple hours on each side to get them dry enough to use or freeze. They are simple to make but time consuming as far as time to cut and dry. You can freeze the excess and use them later. Perfect for turkey and noodles after the holidays. It is messy though.
I had friends who made stands out of dowel rod in between and hung them over them to dry. They made serious amounts though. Like enough for several families for a year or so at a time.
I give eggs back to my chickens all the time. I don't cook them either. As long as they are broken when they get them they don't seem to take up egg eating as a hobby from it either.
I've never had egg eaters at all until this year and it's been my breeders in the building. I think it has been because of boredom not any other reason. And incidentally, I've never given them eggs. Just the outside birds. A friend of mine told me he blew out eggs and filled them with mustard and/or dish soap and they never touched another egg. I think I'm going to try that.
