Keep in mind that egg shells are permeable and when they go from a warmer environment (duck) to a cooler environment (swim pan) they tend to absorb things from their surroundings (swim pan)... This is why you should always wash an egg in warmer water than the egg (so they don't absorb what you are washing off) and why eggs laid in swim water are never eaten by me
That's yucky, and good to know!
