I'm just getting into this composting thing, and I heard if you add
eggshells, you have to peel out the membrane inside all of them prior to
adding - is this true? I'm a pastry chef and have lots of shells every
week - can you add too many shells?
Thanks for any input.

No. Why would you do that? I've certainly never done it.

I can't think there'd be too many shells - you of course are
adding other things too? Green leafy things, kitchen
scraps, grass clippings, hay, etc., and a shovel full of
soil now and then.
