Default Hazelnut nut problem ??

good-boy writes
I gathered most of my nuts last week, and its a good job i did as the
squirrels have cleared the rest.

They have left just the odd ones. I have picked these and cracked them
and found none have any kernals.

In checking some of my ones, I am at about 50% full to empty.

How can I check them without cracking them ?? and how do the squirrels
do it ??


Weight?
Feel of them as you shake them - the ones with shrivelled kernels will
rattle.
