Gawd I hate to reply here, but in kansas, you have to have a receipt from the seller showing where you got your eggs. Under no circumstances can you get them from the wild, even if it means the eggs,birds, animal would surely die. even with a breeders license...
If I chose to keep such a hypothetical thing. I would find a likely source of legally obtained eggs, say
Ebay. I would not announce on the WORLD WIDE WEB, if said hypothetical birds hatched. So if it were I, I would throw the eggs away. Chastise the distant friend that brought illegal eggs onto my property. Announce anywhere I posted such info I did what the law requires and got rid of said eggs....
I would then watch my silkie and scoop up any strange chicks she may produce, chickens just do that sometimes.... and brood them inside away from her or any other chickens or barnyard avian. feed them high protein starter, I hear game bird starter is good in these cases, say 28 to 30% protein. Then move them to rabbit hutch type quarters when their feathered well... Just till you figure out what she may have hatched...
Either quietly keep them as pets or eat them when grown. Under no circumstance should you ever release them. A bird released into the wild after being raised by humans almost never lives. Not to mention the possible damage it could do to the wild birds as JJ has stated.... Bill
