The freshness of the egg - that makes sense, the stale one is already gassy.
You've forgotten a bit of physics in school? It would be logical to attribute this phenomenon to gas formation, if the egg shell was elastic and under the influence of liberated gases increased the volume of the egg, while maintaining its mass, hence the specific gravity of the egg decreased.
Here, the reason is slightly different - the egg during storage gradually loses moisture (through micro-pores in the shell evaporates), and since the volume of the shell does not change, the specific density of the egg decreases and it begins to acquire buoyancy, the longer it is stored, the more moisture it loses, the more it floats in water, as shown in the picture.
 

Eh! Well done, bull!

What's there to compare? A samovar with a gun?

Your samovar with the locals.
