The Story of Carl the Chicken in 

Ravenloe

Once upon a time there was a farm in the 

middle of nowhere where a small community 

of chickens and birds lived happily together. 

There was a chicken, Carl the chicken, that 

had a lovely wife whose name was Heather 

the hen. They were both very happy together. 

That all changed as soon as Henry the 

Hummingbird, Carl's best friend started to like 

Carl's wife. 

Heather as well liked with Henry, leaving Carl 

sad and alone. Carl kept eating to help get rid 

of his sadness, eating all the food the farm 

had. The farmer couldn't support Carl's hungry 

belly so he had no choice but to trade him 

away to a different farm, Ravenloe. 

 When he arrived in Ravenloe, everyone 

immediately thought of him as the grumpy old 

chicken. Broken of spirit, Carl had only one thing to 

keep him happy, a family feather, passed down 

from parent to child and worth a fortune. He kept it 

safe and hidden under his nest until night time. He 

loved his feather more than anything and would 

just stare and admire it every single night. 

Ryan, an evil rooster heard tales of Carl’s 

feather since nobody actually knew if it was 

real. Being the thief he was, Ryan snuck into 

Carl's home. Ryan had no clue where it was 

but he searched everywhere until he found the 

end of the feather sticking out of Carl’s nest, 

with Carl sound asleep on top of it. Ryan 

slowly slipped the feather out from under Carl 

and walked away quietly. 

Carl heard nothing until the door shut, waking 

him up. He thought nothing of it, and gave his 

feather one last pat before he went back to 

sleep. But wait! The feather was missing!   He 

ran out front door, seeing no sign of his 

feather. 

Carl searched far and wide but never found his 

beloved feather. Every night he checked under 

his nest and all around his house but it was 

never to be found.

Meanwhile, the richest bird in Ravenloe, Randy 

the rooster, was upset about how his life was 

turning out. He had just found out that his 

brother, Ryan the rooster, had gone missing 

and he didn't know where he was. He also 

found out he was having a chick with his wife, 

Hannah the hummingbird.

A long time had passed and many things had 

changed. Randy got married to a hen named 

Helen and pretends to still be in love with 

Hannah in secret because she isn't as popular 

as Helen. Randy is happy with his new wife, 

but Ryan still hasn't go home, he was really 

scared if he was okay. 

Hannah gets very angry and thinks Randy 

doesn't still love her so plans to bring their 

new chick with her and walks to Randy's 

house. On the way, Hannah saw her enemies, 

hawks, flying towards Ravenloe and decided to 

run away so she didn't get eaten, leaving the 

chick in the middle of nowhere
