Mr Rossi`s childhood

On the tiniest farm on the outskirts of a small village, there once was a nest with four eggs laying in it, for 21 days.

 

 

 

 

One morning the eggs started to move, and soon they moved and rolled in that little nest. They rolled so much; the one egg shells began to crack.

A tiny peep could be heard. The peep became louder and louder and with each peep, you could see the shells cracks growing bigger and bigger.

Suddenly it got quiet and then the egg crack completely open. Peep, peep, hello world, I am here, comes the sound of the small lonely chicken.

 

 

 

That little chick looked outside as he waits for his brother and sisters to come also out.

 

 

 

 

 

After a while, one after the other egg cracks open and the little chicks comes slowly out their egg shell. The farmer takes the four little one to his home, where he put a lamp over their new home so that they can get heated. They need the heat now that they don’t catch a cold.

 

 

 

 

 

Day to day they grow a little bit more, the farmer gives now to everyone, a name. The strongest one looks like a rooster, and he gets the name, Rossi. Then the little chicks, is now Blossom, followed from peaches and Wubble. They all like their names.

They explore their new home. Peaches the smallest of the four discovered a big white and round object with water in it. She likes water and drinks a lot from it. She is the only one who likes water a lot and most of the time she jumps into the bowl and bathes her feet in it.

 

 

 

 

The four chickens get tired very quickly of exploring and decided to take a nap in the corner of their home. The chicken fairy visits them that night in their dreams to teach them to hunt for worms.

Little Rossi asks farmer Peter if they can play outside.  Farmer Peter says: "Sure Rossi you and your siblings can go and play in the garden." 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The four chicks are searching for worms just like in their dreams. They are always walking in a cross figure. Rossi is in front, and his brother Wubble is at the back, and their sister Peaches are on the left and Blossom their younger sister, are on the right.

Wubble and last and least Rossi

 

 

 

Rossi, he found just a worm, he ate quickly and now he struts around the garden. Rossi is becoming a strong and healthy little rooster, and he is never afraid of anything.

He is already looking after his brother and sister at such a young age.

Look, look shouts Rossi one day to Blossom, what is that for a house? Blossom said:” “Do you think mom is in there”? No silly girl, how can mum fit in so little house”? I will look at it very carefully. Boom… and then he shouts at her, "hey, its food!" Just look also in there? “It’s really food in it, come quickly.” The heads of both little chicks disappeared in the box. “Mmhh, that’s nice Wubble.”

 

Blossom, Peaches, and Wubble went quickly to them to see also what is in that little house. Everyone puts his head in and eat the particular food, which Farmer Peter gave into it. Wubble closed his eyes and mumbles, oh that was good. I am full now, can’t eat anymore, I feel I get belly pain.

 

 

 

 

They are eaten so much that day, which farmer Peter had to put them in bed and rub their small belly`s to ease the pain. They sleep beneath until the next morning. The neighbor’s rooster woke them all up early in the morning. The sun was shining and another good day for new adventures.

As the sun goes down, and the moon comes up, winter comes, and winter goes, the little chickens grew bigger and bigger. Rossi became a strong and big rooster. His job is wakening up the farm every morning with his beautiful, loud voice.

 

Rossi became the first rooster on the farm. Today he looks cute, and he is the only one that can walk in the house from farmer Peter and his family.  You will find Rossi sometimes sleeping in the box in the lounge. The only one who shouts about Rossi`s sleeping habit is the dog Sultan because he is jealous.

 

 

Rossi today a proud rooster
