It's an easy way to get food poisoning. Just because someone else ate some eggs and didn't get sick doesn't mean eggs don't make people sick.
For more info on Salmonella, a common food poisoning from eggs:
Disease Listing, Salmonella enteritidis, Generall Information | CDC Bacterial, Mycotic Diseases"Salmonella enteritidis Infection
Egg-associated salmonellosis is an important public health problem in the United States and several European countries. A bacterium, Salmonella enteritidis, can be inside perfectly normal-appearing eggs, and if the eggs are eaten raw or undercooked, the bacterium can cause illness.... Unlike eggborne salmonellosis of past decades, the current epidemic is due to intact and disinfected grade A eggs. Salmonella enteritidis silently infects the ovaries of healthy appearing hens and contaminates the eggs before the shells are formed "

It's best to consume grass-fed eggs if you're going to eat them.

There is no such thing as a grass-fed chicken or chicken egg. Chickens don't eat grass like a cow does. They live on grains, some plant matter, and insects. You can have "free range" chickens which should in theory be allowed outside to scratch and forage for food, but with no standards on what "free range" means it could mean he's living outside of a cage but still in a dark overcrowded filthy shed. There are NO legal standards for "cage free" or "free range". All chickens can carry salmonella.
