The hen would have had to come first. If the egg did, eggs need a way of keeping heat to keep them alive. There wouldn't have been anything to keep the baby chick warm because it wouldn't have another hen to keep it that way. If the egg came first, it would've died.
Does a hen have to sit on her eggs?
As far as I know, yes. But if the hen who is laying on the eggs happens to pass, then it is best to keep it in warm weather to keep the egg(s) alive. A broody hen will only set when she has collected enough eggs to brood a clutch. For about a week before settling down she will move around like any other hen but return to the clutch often. A hen must remain on the clutch to keep them warm and humid is she is actually incubating the eggs.
