One of them was my favourite . This is her pic when she was only 7 weeks :




She made good progress . This the pic when she was 4 months :



I was very happy with her as she was the first one to lay eggs . She was 6 months when she laid her first egg

Day after day she laid eggs and after laying 14 eggs she went broody :)

These are her first 9 eggs :




I was a noob at that time but thanxx to BackYardChicken forums I read and applied on my broody hen.
This is her nest and she sitting on her eggs

It was her first time so i kept 13 eggs under her and she took a day for the adjustment of eggs :)
Day by day i checked her and make her walk around a little bit ;)
But unfortunately one of the eggs got eaten up by my hen . I did not understand why she eaten her own egg

I started to take more care of the hen and the eggs .....

and now at 21st day it was hatch time

At that day only one chick hatched but i didnot lose hope :/
This are the pics of her first chick :








The next day 7 eggs more hatched and chirping of chicks surrounded my hen :)







And the following day 12 eggs transformed into 10 successful chicks :)
 
Congrats on your hatch! Love the pics

my aseel also got broody but on 30 eggs but i gave her 20 and she ate all of them after day 18 with bad and developing chicks....
 
@arcy liger

Really felt sorry for this

I figured it out that a hen eats her eggs when she becomes too much exhausted and hungry ...
U should take the hen out for a walk like twice a day for eating,drinking and pooping
