Have you ever cracked open a floater and found a perfectly fine egg? You are counting the ones that confirm your bias but don’t have a large enough sample size to work from. I have 21 chickens. 5 ducks and an unknown number of geese that lay eggs. I’ve seen fresh hour old eggs that are bad and sink. I’ve seen 6 week old eggs stored at room temperature that sink. I’ve had day one eggs that float and are still fine. Eggs are a natural product with high amounts of variation. We can’t even reliably tell if a fertilized egg is male or female using the best science available and people expect a float test to determine if it’s infected with bacteria? Not happening. The float test tells you how much air is in it. That’s all. And that isn’t even a guaranteed way to determine age.
Have ya ever cracked open a floater? I have recently and it took a few hours for the smell to leave the kitchen
