One of my chickens has just satrted laying egg, but she is sitting on one, how do i move her?
Do i just lift her off or will that upset her?

You can lift her off or just put your hand under her and take the egg.  When you lift your hen make sure you pick her up gently but securely.  It helps to have her wings secure at her sides instead of loose so she can flap.

Be careful,
One of my chickens beats the dodo out of me when i try to do this.

I just slip my hand underneath her.  She might grump a but, but usually they will let me remove the eggs no problems.
