How to tell if power cut has killed my duck eggs

I guess that's why they hatch in numbers? Shame, but its natures way I guess?

Round here, the main problem is the fact that there are at least five Drakes for every Duck, so the poor Girls have a terrible time, many are made lame or even killed by the persistence of the Drakes. It's awful to watch. Those that do manage to have a brood, lose most of them in their attempts at keeping hidden away from the Drakes.

Very cute - Glad they came through in the end.
