Is that.. normal? my ducks are young. I have 2 and it may just be one who is laying. I have gotten one egg a day for the last week. This egg was either from this morning or yesterday morning, I can't be certain. I change the water about every other day. Some days the egg has just been sitting next to the pool, other days its been a foot or two back in a little nest area they made. I didn't see one yesterday. Course, I didn't check the pool! It was a little murky yesterday, but could see the bottom. I found an egg this morning when I changed the water. Anyway, two part question I guess. Is that really strange to lay an egg in the water? And, is it still safe to eat if it was potentially bathing in pooped-in water for 24+ hours? (Though it might have only been 6-7 hours)
