Have you ever wondered where the expression "mother hen" comes from, and why, instead, we do not say "mother cat" or "mother elephant"? 

Well, it is true that all mothers are kind and caring and very protective of their young, but hens are so much so that they even extend these "services" to the young of all species.

And, among the best services that hens provide, is the one by which they have always distinguished themselves, namely,  their ability to keep their offspring warm - no matter who it is! 

These amazing images are the irrefutable proof! ;)
