How many do you have?
You can turn them into ornaments for your tree or just decorate them and use as decorations for centerpieces, wreaths...etc..
here's how:
1-wash eggs gently
2-using a straight pin, carefully poke a hole into both ends of the egg
3-empty out the egg: blow out the insides...this may take some huffing and puffing, but this is the only way to do it!
4-decorate the hollow shell by either painting or gluing on gems, beads, pearls, ribbon...whatever you'd like to use.
5-to make the "hanger", use a standard wire ornament hanger and straighten it out. Insert it into the egg from the top and (you may have to "poke around" a little) pull it through the other end just enough to bend it up along the bottom of the shell to secure it.
6-Depending on how much of the hook is still remaining at the top of the egg, you can either use that for the hook by re-bending it....or bend it into a loop and tie a thin ribbon around it for hanging.
7-glaze the egg w/a clear finish (shellac or even mod podge) to give the shell some endurance/strength and to keep you embellishments on.

This is an old cultural custom done in many countries (like Germany) for Christmas and Easter. Depending on how "artsy" you are, they can even make great gifts due to their uniqueness

I would change the triggers and not have the bird lay eggs in the first place. It is onlydepleting her calcium.

Hard boil them-mash up shell and all and feed in soft food mixture-the protein and calcium from the shell is good for your bird.

You can send them to Mr. Egghead234 he always does something good. Or you can boil it then feed it to your birds. They enjoy stuff tha they make.
