Help! Broody partially off nest!

[Dgrif5]

Our broody hen has been diligently sat on her clutch of eggs this whole time, and has hatched out three little beauties. However, I just went down to check on her, and she was sat next to the eggs instead of on them, with her 3 chicks in tow. All of the eggs next to her have pipped and are peeping, and the membranes look really dry. Should I wait and see if she sits on them again, or should I try and incubate/hatch them and then reintroduce them later when they hatch?
Please, any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Or you might take the hatched chicks and return them after hatch is complete.

How long have the first three been hatched for already?

Good idea if the chicks are not older than a day old.

Well, she's been back on the nest for a while now, so fingers crossed it didn't make too much of a difference... I'll keep the incubator ready just in case.
