Broody hens chicks are hatching! Need Advice!!

[roxanne]

I have a hen who is now hatching out located in a nesting box in my regular coop. Unfortunately, our coop is not set up to allow her to raise them inside. I need to move her to a brooder. Can I do this while her eggs are still hatching? Would this cause her to stop sitting? I feel like if I do it now, the babies are coming no matter what and she will continue to be a protective mama even though I moved her.
Any advice or suggestions!

leave her and the chicks alone during the hatch!

interfering now could kill the chicks. The hatch could go on for a couple of days. You can use that time usefully to educate yourself about broodies and chicks. I recommend this article
