You were right for waiting to move them after the eggs were laid. As far as after hatching, You will always risk losing the babies to angry upset parents afterthey are hatched if you want to move them. I'm not saying it can't be done. I have been successful in the past doing it. It helps to know the personalities of the parents. Are they agressive? Are they experienced parents? First time parents seem to get upset easier. You have to weigh the good with the bad and decide if you can face the outcome.

I would not do it. Not even if they are experienced parents. Lovebirds are temperamental, every little thing bothers them, and they can turn on the babies and hurt them if they get all stressed out.
