Broody hen advice

We've moved our hen and chicks after hatch. It worked out fine for the birds, not quite so well for the hapless human this last time, as this particular broody is Crazy Vicious Alligator Mom From Hell, lol. Chicks are two weeks old now and we do not have any worries about ANYBODY bothering these chicks!
 
My son prefers broody hens over incubators, he never had luck incubating because of recommended humidity, humidity is high in our area and his chicks would develop fully then drown when they pipped through the membrane because not enough water was evaporated from the egg, I studied it, watched YouTube videos and tried the dry hatch method and it worked great.
I have 80 quail and 29 chicken eggs that’s supposed to hatch next week and the following week.
Good luck
