What do you mean by breaking up the nest?

Did the nest and babies get put in a box or is the nest still on the floor?

Is she just eating the hay from around the nest or is she digging in it and absolutely destroying it?

She has destroyed the nest through the night ! Was worried but she's still feeding them and cleaning them so not as worried as I was!!

Well, that is the important part. If she's feeding and cleaning them, then the babies should be just fine.
