Momma hen not going back to babies

[pcosmom]

My hen gets off the nest to eat and drink but doesn't go back to the babies and instead climbs in a nest with another broody that is setting eggs.. She is an awesome broody hen and accepts any chicks hers or not even let's us mess with her and the babies but she still wants to set eggs.. I would give her more eggs but she doesn't have room with all the babies..

She just got confused. Just put her back on her nest, the babies should be following her out soon for food and water.
Are they able to reach food and water now?
