can you make a hen stop going broody?

we have 2 hens that are sitting on some eggs, they are bantam hens sitting on standard sized eggs. will they just stay broody after these eggs hatch or will they start laying again?

They will raise those chicks and start laying six weeks or so after they hatch.
