The Chickens of Fowl Farm

On a bright summer day at Fowl Farm, a lively troupe of chickens gathers in the yard to trade riddles and stories. Young Scratchfoot, always eager to prove his wit, solves Red‑Nose Mike’s puzzle about a pig’s “cravat,” winning a prize of fresh worms and the admiration of his feathered friends. Their banter reveals distinct personalities—from the thoughtful Topknot to the quick‑tongued Henny Penny—creating a charming tableau of coop‑side camaraderie.

Beyond the playful chatter, the farm itself carries a quiet history. Once owned by a farmer named Gray, the land now belongs to a self‑appointed council of hens and roosters who tend the fields, mail each other, and plan evening gatherings at Hen Castle. Listeners are invited into this warm, anthropomorphic world where everyday farm life turns into a series of witty exchanges and gentle lessons, setting the stage for many more feathered adventures.
