Can I take ready to hatch eggs from hen and move them to incubator?

[SampsonCass]

I have a few hens sitting on a nest. Four babies have hatched the other chickens killed two and I was able to get to the other two in time but I'm having to check every hour so the chickens don't harm them. Am I able to take the remainder of the eggs and put them in an incubator for them to continue to hatch safely?

Yup. Sorry about your losses.
Another option is to move the broodies - nest, eggs and all - to a safer location, or shield them somehow from the other chickens. We grabbed our broodies, put them and their nests in a trash can lid, and carried them out to the well house where we got them settled so the eggs could hatch. It was crazy and nuts but worked well. (I think DH lifted the nest and I grabbed the hen. X 4!)
