A week after your duck lays her eggs, you can take them in the dark and quickly flash them with a flashlight. If they are alive then you will see a dark area inside an otherwise clear egg. "At about seven days after setting, candle the eggs and remove any eggs that are infertile (clear) or have dead germ (cloudy)"(Duckhealth.com).

If a duck egg sinks in water, it is likely fresh and suitable for consumption. Whether it is alive or not cannot be determined by this method, as it pertains to its quality for consumption rather than its vitality. To check if an egg is alive, it would require specialized equipment and techniques such as candling.
It is difficult to determine if a duck embryo is alive based solely on a dark spot inside the egg. To confirm viability, it is best to consult with a veterinarian or experienced individual who can perform egg candling to observe the development of the embryo and determine its status.
It would still be viable but the crack in the egg will probably render it useless for hatching. Cracks in eggs allow bacteria and disease to enter the fertilized eggs and effect the viability. Most cracked eggs do not make it to full hatch.
All you do is make sure it is not Stinky and if it is then it is dead and if it is a soft shell,it is also dead. If you feel the egg and it is really hard and hollow it is alive.To also make sure the egg is alive,you take like a long plastic cup or something and poor alot of COLD water in it and drop the egg carefully in the cup and if the egg sinks to the bottom of the cup,it is not rotton and it can also be alive,and if it floats to the top,it is dead and rotton:(
Unfortunately, it is highly unlikely that the egg will hatch or the duckling will survive. To hatch successfully, the duck egg needs specific conditions such as consistent warmth and humidity, which are crucial for the development of the embryo. The cracked egg with fluids coming out indicates that it has been damaged, making it extremely unlikely for the duckling to survive.
yes
They are around 3-5 dollars per egg

No, a baby duck egg that is cold is not alive. Because the little egg with the baby duckling inside needs heat and warmth to survive. They are just like humans without air they can't breathe and without warmth they could freeze to death and without food they could starve to death. So no if a little duckling egg is cold it is not alive.
Most duck eggs are larger than a chicken egg. PoultryTalk's Response: Smell the egg, duck eggs have a scent chicken eggs dont. Also most are glossy and sometimes they are a greenish color. Also duck eggs are usually thicker.
The Egg - another species that the duck has evolved from lays the duck egg, and the duck is born :)

There should be cracks in the egg but they are super small cracks.
