    (continued from previous page)
    When we set hens we say collect the teen egg. Then my mother prepares the nest. She puts thirteen eggs under the hen. The hen remains there weeks on the eggs then the little chickens come out. Then the hen minds them for some time. After some time the hen leaves the chickens and then they mind them selves.
