So this morning I woke up and the power had run out, the eggs were cold but i managed to warm them myself until the power got back on, im not sure if theyre still alive though. There are many veins in the eggs but on one of the eggs the duckling doesnt seem to be moving much if at all (im on day 24) I think i see slight movements above the air cell but theyre very slow and small, is it dying? im not sure what to do, please help! (theyre indian runner ducks)
 
They're probably okay :) They can deal with a lot more cooling than you would think. I once had a hen get off a nest for over a day and still hatched the eggs after.

Give them some time to warm back up, and then candle once they've gotten warm.
