First time broody hen just hatched out 10 of 10 eggs

Well like the title said, my first time broody hen has been sitting on 10 eggs for the last 3 weeks, today while doing some yard work we heard some little peeps, sure enough there are 10 little fluffy chicks running round our new mom. My daughter is over the moon with the idea of new chicks again. She (our hen) seams like she's doing good, sitting on them in the egg box. We added some starter feed, and chick waterer near the egg box, and will check on them parodically. We would love any advice and feedback, as this is the first time we have had a Mama hen that hatched her own eggs. We will include pictures in the next day so so when everyone is running around.
