I think I figured out why I don't have any eggs this week and why the eggs under my broody have yolk all over them. She is taking the other hen's eggs and eating them. I found half an egg shell under her today. The eggs she has been sitting on are all there (I marked them. How will I keep her from eating the eggs in her nest if I separate her from the flock? She has plenty of food and water available.
 
Yes. Seperate her if you can.

Make sure she has food and water within reach, so she does not have to get up.
