No, absolutely not. Hens sit on their eggs until they hatch. They actually nestle their feathers above and around the eggs and keep them warm, but people say they are sitting or setting on their eggs.

No they sit on the eggs to incubate them. To be more specific the female hen does and not the rooster.

They 'give' us eggs because it is normal for them to reproduce, but they are not fertilised by roosters so they do not hatch like fertilised eggs and we can eat them.

Is it possible to hatch the eggs in your refrigerator?

Chickens are one of the few animals that will lay infertile eggs. The eggs in your refrigerator would never hatch. That would be true even if they had never been in your refrigerator but had been in a nest. (A few chickens are put in pens with roosters. They lay fertile eggs. The eggs hatch and produce little chicks. Some of those will again grow up to be put in pens with roosters. Others will take the jobs of laying eggs. Others will become food.)

Why do roosters eat hen eggs?

Actually, roosters are usually the only kind of chicken eaten. Hens are kept for egg laying and a few roosters stay on a farm to fertilize the many females. Since few are needed to keep the flock fertile, the roosters not eaten (There are a large excess of them after the eggs hatch) are sold to food processing plants. I hope I have answered your question.
