Hens not letting you take eggs out of nest box?

My girls usually lay and leave. Occasionally I feel around underneath them (when they are in the nesting box) to see if there is anything. I have twelve laying right now and one (one of my Black sex links) gets mad when I try to see if she is sitting on any eggs. The others are okay with it.
 
There are some hens that just don't like to be disturbed when they are laying. Are you always happy to have the boss wanting the job done now? It was kind of a test of the nerves when we were kids when we were gathering eggs. Would this one be nice or peck? Because ya gotta check because hens like to use the nest every one else uses.
