I understand that removing the egg is the worst thing to do and have told that to PetsMart. But there policy is throwing away the eggs and so instead of him throwing it away were it definitely would have died, I took it home and see that the eggs are fertile. I am sure she is egg bound because she is breathing heavy at the bottom of the cage, has plucked her feathers around her vent, and has been trying to pass an egg that I can feel inside of her. The vet can't see her tomorrow, so she might die tonight. I have used vegetable oil around her vent which seemed to calm her down and have given her a nice warm place in a quiet room without the rest of the birds stomping her. She has a cuttle bone, but I was trying to find some calcium drops to help her contract her muscles (it won't help for her egg at this point)
