Hen moving dummy egg from one box to another?

Either some human is messing with me or my chicken is moving eggs around.. Is this possible?? How does she do it?

They can definitely do this, and often will if someone is broody. They roll them around. They also pick them up between their "chin" and neck. I think they also pick them up under their wings. They can definitely do it with the wings accidentally.

Haha thats too funny. Its kind of a heavy egg and the nest boxes are off the ground I couldn't believe a chicken could do that. She's done it twice in the last couple days. I have to keep an eye on her, I hope she dosen't drop a real one!
