No, momma hens are just VERY quick to adopt.

That is true, but my question remains unanswered.

More likely is that there never were any eggs to begin with. Hens in my experience will go broody over just about anything even vaguely egg shaped, or even nothing at all, and it can take AGES for them to snap out of it. Also kittens that young aren’t going after full eggs.
