Has anyone out there had any experience with letting your hens hatch their own chicks? I want some more chickens but to make sure they do well in the flock and because I like the babies, i'd like to let the hens raise their own.

i wish i had a frizzle... i let my silkie hen sit on some eggs but they died in the shell before they cold hatch...they might have grown too large for the egg seeing as my top rooster is nearly three times her size. Its also possible althogh highly unlikely that the eggs got overheated in the arizona summer heat...
