If hens aggressive might fight through the wire

It's been a week now since the first egg but my hen is still depositing...... how long can an egg be good for? Should I get a few of the early eggs and incubate them leaving the fresher ones out for the hen to set? The thing is I would rather have my hen set the eggs instead of incubating myself, but at the same time if I'm waiting for her to finish her clutch (and hopefully set), that could take a few more days and I'm worried by then the early eggs will not be as fertile.Oh ok. Just leave them in the nest for her and she will take care of them. Usually after 8-12 eggs she will set.
