Claret refers to the color of the hen however some use it to refer to a game hen or fighting bird. Game hens are not prolific egg layers but average 120 eggs per year usually medium size or smaller.
They sit in the hen house on eggs, on the roost or in a nest.
None...only Polish roosters lay eggs.
Many people believe the shamo hen originated from Japan. The true origin of this hen is Thailand. The shamo hen is know for laying medium size brown eggs. The average amount of eggs produced by these hens can range from 50 to 100 eggs within a year's time.
A hen sits on the eggs to keep them warm and safe from predators. She turns the eggs regularly to ensure they develop properly. The hen also provides moisture by gently dampening the eggs with her beak.
An individual hen will go"broody" and will gather a clutch of eggs to brood. These will not always be her own eggs. She will steal them from other hens by rolling them into the nest she has chosen. Unless the hen is broody she will lay her egg and leave the nest announcing loudly to the rest of the flock what she has accomplished. Hens can go broody whether there is a rooster in the flock or not, so no, not just fertile eggs trigger the brooding instinct.

Yes. they both do. But their eggs are very different. While the hen's eggs have a hard outside the frogs eggs are very soft. Also a hen doesn't lay nearly as many eggs as a frog. Also frogs eggs are in the water, while a hen lays them on land.

It depends on the size of the hen.. But most probably 10 or 11.
Accorsing to the staff trainers at my company... an ostrich egg is the equivalent to 18 chicken eggs.
