Moving her at night is the best thing you can do. She is less likely to freak out. Chickens go into a sort of stupor at night when they sleep.

Oh, if you have a red light, it is best to use that instead of a flash light. A flash light could wake her up.

It's possible, but it doesn't sounds like she will brood well if she stays where she is.

I have 5'x5'X2' PVC runs that I use for chick integration and broodies. I have the runs inside my electrified paddock. I have totes with doors on them that I put inside the run with the broody. This prevents other hens from harassing her while allowing her to still interact with the flock.

When you say 'Electrified paddock'....
