Newbie chicken question 
Does a brooding hen get up to let the eggs hatch under her or does she stay seated on the nest and only gets up when everything has hatched?
Mainly asking because I'm wondering if you can see eggs hatch under a broody the same way (or at least close enough) as in an incubator/hatcher.
