    Was it cooked or raw?

    Cooked = very, very bad but either way just keep a very close eye on her for now and get her to the vet if you notice and change at all in her behaviour.
    Check to make sure she poops at all or if she struggles and just tries to go.

    I had one here who eat a cooked chicken wing and after 4 days of monitoring I knew we were OK and that it had just passed through him but we were very lucky. Cooked bones can easily shatter and splinter causing a lot of internal problems or blockages.
