This is disturbing and something serious. Egg is something which is 
severely condemned in Dharmashastras and is an abhojya for dwijas. 
Consuming it requires a prayaschitta homa. 

For taittiriya yajurvedins, the homa involves pavamanis and 
trisuparna mantras. For Rig vedins different mantras are used. 
I do not know the protocols for samavedins. 
I urge people who are serious about sampradaya to 
stay away from abhakshyas and abhojyas.

The rite is listed in the next mail, 

Thanks & regards,
Kasturi Rangan .K
