My friend's dad has some chickens and showed me a smaller chicken. He said that she gets sick until she hears a cheep. Does anyone know what kind of chicken she is? Thanks

I don't really understand "She gets sick until she hears a cheep." What do you mean by that? 
Can you show us a picture, or give us a description of what she looks like?

I know all chickens just sit on their eggs but this is different. What my friend does is he takes other chicken's eggs that the chickens won't take care of and puts them under her and she acts sick.
About the picture thing I'll try to get one but it might be awhile.

Sounds like she is broody. Some chickens go through a phase where they need to have offspring. They keep laying eggs, and never have babies.... Some get tired of that, and become broody. They will sit in the nest box all day, and rarely leave the coop.
