just found eggs

Cool I would think. You won't want to get them wet if you want to hatch them. I store mine for up to a week or so if I am going to be hatching... so yes, you could still try after a week.... candle at day 10 to see if they are developing or not.

Chickens can't count,

just one golf ball IN the nest area you want them to lay in to give her the idea, and block off that area you DON't want them laying in is best really.

[edit] Oh, and I doubt they'll be bad, but if you have doubts about eating them, you can hard boil them, then squash them up shells and all, and feed them back to the hens for protein and calcium suppliment. Most people do this if they wind up with too many eggs on hand. (regular customers don't get their normal amount of eggs etc) It's really good for them and they won't associate mashed up ones with eggs 'in' the nest, don't worry!
