If it was by the house I wouldn't do it. Fish heads as well. Makes great compost but keep it a long way away.

Yeah this right here. My lab once dug some fish heads out of my compost pile. Mrs Woody wouldn't let me or the dog back in the house.

If you are going to compost them, I'd hose off the scraps before adding to the pile. Too much salt is definitely a problem. The thrifty cajun use for leftover shells is to feed your chickens. Eggs will have lovely orange yolks, but too many and your eggs will taste like crawfish.
