Nothing. "Mad as a wet hen," however, means very angry, as chickens are supposed to hate getting wet.
In "Where the Red Fern Grows," when a character is described as "swelled up like a sitting hen," it means that he is feeling vulnerable, anxious, or defensive. The comparison to a sitting hen reflects the character's protective instincts and discomfort in that moment.
If you are taking about the hen sitting on eggs then it will make things easy for you and the hen. you will have a better outcome if you move the hen or take the rooster out.
