One caveat with collagen protein--it's okay as a supplement on top of dietary protein, but it lacks tryptophan, so no good for a program that gets most of its protein from shakes.
If I'm eating a lot of raw eggs, I'll usually make sure to take a biotin supplement, or at least a b vitamin, and take it not too close to eating them.
The egg protein is probably slower digesting than the whey. The marketing for casein versus whey protein supplements to bodybuilders sometimes emphasizes the difference in digestion and the effect that has on protein synthesis. Due to a rapid increase in serum amino acids, there's more of a spike in protein synthesis, and then return to baseline with whey, where casein is promoted as having a longer, if less elevated effect on protein synthesis.
