I've acquired a house chicken. The rescue where I volunteer had a chicken (bantam?) brought in because her people had a house fire. Our rescue has had some predator problems and although we have some bantams they were brought up outdoors so we thought she would be safer in a home. Problem: She has laid 11 eggs and is sitting on 8 of them. All my birds ( not chickens) have been males so I've never had to worry about eggs. Do I take them away after a while or will she give up and leave them after a while? I don't think they are fertilized. People who brought her in said she was a only chicken but you can't always trust people. Do I have to worry about her getting egg bound? TIA. She volunteered to pose in the tree in the photo below.
