Su per Herby and The Smarty Fox
Once in a henhouse, during springtime, when all the eggs had hatched, something miraculous occurred, or maybe it was something malignant?
In the middle of all the bright yellow chicks, a wisp of grass was walking by: but it was not a wisp of grass actually!
It was the
weirdest event that had ever occurred not only within the farm, but also within the entire community! The brooder had to intervene in order to understand what had happened. She had to chase the wisp of grass away herself: who knew how it ended up there in her brood. She started chasing it all over the compound until she realised that the little creature was cheeping.
Never ever in her entire life, the hen had witnessed to a cheeping wisp of grass, although she had been a well-respected brooder for

He was shiny, well-groomed, but he was still green.
And that is how she named him Herby.
Herby was visibly upset for all that situation.
As soon as he got out of the shell of his egg, he had been shaken and tossed left and right. He had not managed to make the most of the only good thing of being born: filling up his belly with corn flakes.
He was wondering what chicken-chef could have cooked such a delicacy.
As soon as the hen put him on the ground, his little legs raised a cloud of dust and took him back to his supper.
No other chick had acknowledged his presence: they were also too busy eating. No one among the fellow diners would raise their head out of fear that someone might snatch some grains.
The hen, who was still in shock for that occurrence, ran looking for an advice from the gossips of the barnyard.
