Is it okay to remove chicks from Mom after 3 weeks old?

I’ve heard it’s fine but I don’t wanna stress her.
Just wanting some advice :celebrate
 
Thank you. I’ve heard so many different things lol but thank you. Every comment helps :)
 
I truly value my broody hens, and have no desire to offend them in any way.
Hens don't actually count their chicks, but rely on verbal communication (panic calls) from them.
The mama hen won't miss a couple of chicks, but I'd never remove her whole brood. She's worked very hard for them, and deserves to raise them as long as she's interested.
