Solution

The correct option is D 21
After the eggs are laid, the mother bird sits on the eggs to keep them warm. This ensures that the babies inside the eggs develop correctly. This act is known as the incubation of the eggs.

The incubation period is different for different birds. For hens, the incubation period is 21 days.
