After the eggs have been sitting for awhile, use a flashlight and put it on the side of the egg which is not facing you and shine the light through the egg. If you do not see a dark, small object inside the egg then the egg is not fertilized.

Im pretty sure from my experience with slug eggs that snails don't lay eggs when they're unfertilized. They only lay if they've mated and the eggs are fertilized, otherwise (again I know this from slugs, not snails, I could be wrong) they wouldn't lay any in the first place.
