I just feel bad that she’s sitting in a box all day so when she gets out she can interact with the flock and do all her duties.You might read my response in this thread. It might help you.

As I said in that thread I don't see anything wrong with removing her from the nest once a day to give her the opportunity to eat, drink, and poop. You probably don't have to but it won't hurt anything. If it makes you feel better I consider that a good thing. One less worry.
