We are down to 2 eggs now. I candled those 2 tonight when I removed the one she tossed out. They both appeared to have air sacs. The inside of her nest was dry and very warm (she only got off for those 30 mins in the last 36 hrs) Unfortunately we are having a bad storm again.I also think that even though it looks like they are tight down on the eggs, they figure out how to provide air flow underneath them. Turn different directions, lift their tail to let air under, etc.
First-timers can have issues, learning the ropes, but since she has stuck with it so long, she was really committed to having ducklings.
At some point, you are probably going to have to break up her nest and get her to resume her life.
