A chicken is hatched in an?

A chicken can be hatched from under the mother hen after 21 days of sitting on them, as long as the eggs are turned for the first 18 days, twice a day (morning and night). But, I think you are referring to an incubator, where you put fertilized eggs at a certain temperature, and turn them just as a mother hen would do.

Do eggs start developing the day they are laid or when they are put into an incubator?

Development of a fertilized egg begins when temperature and humidity are within certain parameters. An artificial incubator recreates the conditions a brood hen would when she sets on a clutch of eggs. 100.5 F and a humidity of 60%+ are optimum. A fertilized egg that is collected and stored in a cool (50F or lower) dry place will not develop.

What day is considered the first day placing the eggs in the incubator?

Eggs must not be placed into the incubator until all the clutch is gathered. Once all the eggs you wish to hatch are placed into the incubator and the lid is closed, the thermostat is set, do you start the count to 21 days. Until then allow the eggs to set in a cool moist area so early embryonic formation does not begin.
