Has a rooster ever hatched eggs?

I'm just curious, as I heard/ read/ watched videos of rosters adopting chicks.

Im not sure I've ever heard of a rooster being broody, so I doubt he could hatch his own? ^^"

I seriously doubt it. They can be good guardians to chicks, but their primary motivation is mating with and protecting hens.

A capon (neutered male) will raise chicks, not sure about sitting and hatching.
