Plot[]
Deep the valley there was a hidden chicken farm called Oven Ready Farm with NO chickens to be ever seen. Once in a while a big lorry would go to the chicken farm and leave a few hours later. Meanwhile a Wolf was fed up and wanted to investigate about the chickens. He wanted to know if the chickens are actually in the farm.
That night when the lorry left the farm and whilst the farmer was watching the telly the Wolf climbed up the roof on the shed to investigate. He noticed there wasn‘t any windows so he pulled one of the planks of the roof to put his head in to look. He noticed that lots of chickens were squashed up together inside the shed with the light on. All of a sudden the part of the roof where the Wolf was sitting collapsed and his legs went through. He managed to pull himself up and looked through that hole. A chicken called Chicken Lickin thought the sky was falling but the Wolf answered that it was just the roof that was falling. Chicken Lickin thought the Wolf was going to eat him and the other chickens, which the Wolf was thinking anyway. Chicken Licken told the Wolf that it would be easier that he could catch him and the other chickens if they were free. The Wolf advised Chicken Lickin to tell someone about this. Chicken Licken decided to tell the Minister about the appalling living conditions that he had and take his friends with him. The Wolf freed the chickens from the shed and guarded the shed just in case the Fox comes to eat the chickens up. Meanwhile the Wolf was thinking to eat them up and had a cunning plan.

When everyone got to the Minister. Chicken Licken asked the minister when he will do something about the living conditions. The Minister answered that he will do it immediately. He turned around and it turned out to be the Wily Wolf. He was about the eat the animals but the Lion defended the animals and chased the Wolf out of the Minister’s office. Meanwhile the Minister was stuck in the cupboard and needed help to get out of there. It turned out the Wolf locked him in there so Chicken Licken opened up the cupboard door and Minister came out.
