As soon as he came home he had to look after his animals. They needed food and water.

His most beloved animals were his chicken and rooster.

He had the most beautiful rooster of all China. With shiny golden feathers.

The eggs that the hens layed always tasted so nice. This was because of the rooster!

Of course you wonder what the rooster had to do with the taste of the eggs?

Well, this is why.

One night a fox had sneaked under the fence to steal eggs. But the rooster had attacked the fox and scared him away. The rooster was afraid of nobody.

The hens since then could freely walk about to search for seeds, worms, spiders and other tasty insects. With such a hero rooster on the look-out!

Because the hens could look for the nicest snacks, their eggs tasted so good.
