My 2 broody already hatched 7 babies, but there r still 16eggs left to be hatched, they r spending time with the babies teaching them, then go back and sit on eggs..eggs seemed cold to the touch this am, so dies this mean they wont hatch?.. too late to get an incubator right? What brand incubator should I buy for about 24 eggs, something reliable please....and where to buy?

This is where a lot of people get incubators, you can also find them on Amazon. I have a farm innovator 4250 that I like a lot and it fits 42 eggs.

I would leave the eggs alone, if they felt cold to the touch they will either make it or not. I would let the broody do her own thing.

Thank u..both broodys r also taking care of 7 babies born( less than 1 week old) it's still warm here yest.it was 88..
 
Hens that are taking care of chicks won't spend enough time on the nest to keep the eggs viable. Was it a staggered hatch? (eggs contributed to the nest after incubation started)
I would remove the eggs, candle them to see if anything is still alive and get them to about 99-100F right away.
