I also did it when my broody came off of her nest early last spring. Hatched 2 of the four remaining eggs in a dog crate with a basket and a meat thermometer.
I think my hatch is over as well. 20 hatched out of 29 at lockdown. Leaving the rest in there for a day or so before I start the next round. 1 dozen RIR, 1 dozen Silkies, and 1 1/2 dozen Ameraucanas. Picking them up Saturday and setting Sunday night/Monday morning. So it will be on to the...

Set 40 eggs last night due to hatch on January 18/19. My December hatch didn't go as well as planned, so I'm giving it another go. And I also have 2 eggs under my broody Silkie pullet outside due within the next week. So close to the NY hatch! Just barely missed it on those. Will stay up to...
