i am hazarding a guess here and will say they probably are not fertile...eggs can be tossed out of a nest if the bird has been sitting for a while on them. did you actually see her eat the egg. it could be she needs calcium. have you cuttle bone in there...with out taking this the wrong way but its like your counting your chickens before they hatch... they cannot fledge until they a few weeks after being born...so patience my friend the time will come for everything to fall into place and bingo baby birds everywhere.....pete
