The bear had actually completed three of the eggs when the fourth one slid off its hands as well as fell under the hen’s nest. On returning, the eagle could not locate her eggs. Feeling extremely distressed, she chose to leave the location.
The hen which lived under the tree saw the eagle’s egg alongside her eggs. She felt eggs pity on the eagle’s egg, as well as decided to hatch it too. After a few days, the hen’s chicks hatched. The eagle’s chick hatched, too.
The hen would feed all the chicks, including the eagle’s chick, as if it were her very own. Soon the chicks began to grow.
