This hen establishes her status through behaviors such as pecking order displays and social interactions. In some cases, roosters may also play a leadership role in terms of protection and vocalization. The dynamics can vary based on the specific flock and its social structure.

A chicken is covered in feathers.
The hen, or female chicken, bends over forward while the rooster (male) hops on her from the rear, and tucks his tail under her rear. At some point, their body openings, called cloacas, touch, and the semen with sperm in it is squirted out of the rooster into the hen. The hen isn't big enough to escape the rooster's sexual advance, but does have the ability to squirt his semen right back out at him. The cloaca is sort of an all-purpose body opening . . . it is used to expel body waste, for sexual fluid transfer, and for the eggs to come out of.

The hatching chicks will stay under the mother hen for a few days and even when they venture out, they will dive back under her for protection.
