I'm in college and my roommates and I are moving out of our house by the 31st of this month. When we were cleaning up the back porch, I was "attacked" (not really, just spooked :) ) by a mamma wren. Upon inspection, I found her nest, built into a couple of those fold up camp chairs. I do not want to just throw the nest away. She has 4 little eggs in there and she is still sitting on them.
The problem here is that even if I leave the chairs with the nest on the back porch, my lease company will charge me for it, and still throw them away. I've already called them and explained why I wanted to leave them, but they didn't care.
So, I want to move them somewhere so that they have a chance. Someone told me to try putting the nest into a bird cage and see if she'll go in so that I can take the whole thing to a state park of sorts. I just don't want to scare her that badly.
Does anyone at all know how to go about moving them without her abandoning the nest?
