Her breed looks to be leghorn,not abroody breed and I really doubt she will sit,just because she is mating and so is he doesn’t mean she will wanna sit.
She is probably laying in the thick brush,or under the tree if there is thick brush under there.No way of telling when she lays throughout the day.If they come out during day and she is gone at the time of day,she is probably laying eggs in her nest at this time.
Mating behavior can infact turn a chickens personality.I have witnessed in spring quite a bit.A rooster may become more protective and a hen can become more interested and curious and friendly.Habits can change if there are any other roosters in the area as well.
You can find the nests and take her eggs,eggs are good up until about a month so you could hatch them yourself.
If she does happen to go sit on eggs,aka go broody,you can throw feed outside to whatever location they are at or come to most,id put under the tree.
If she acts normal and seems healthy,meaning no sneezing,no parasites,red comb and wattles,and nice full body their probably heathy.Maybe Try trapping them and keeping in a cage,you can keep them as your own.Just build a run and coop.
