Egg Hatching II

After a few months, mummy duck gets pregnant again. She is thinking of using the same trick, putting her egg in hen's nest for hatching.

The mummy duck goes to hen's house to survey first, to see whether she is hatching any egg. Yes, the hen is hatching four eggs in her nest. However, something is not right for mummy duck. The hen is counting her eggs everytime she gets off from the nest and gets on again to her nest!

"She really learns!" mumbles the disappointed duck.

She goes home and tells the daddy duck what she has seen.

"Why don't you try other animals," suggests the daddy.

The mummy duck finally delivers her second egg. She brings the egg into the jungle, to see who can 'help' her to hatch it.

Eventually, she finds a nest in a bush. The nest has five eggs and it seems like this animal has been hatching for a while.

Some bad idea comes into her mind. The mummy duck quickly puts her egg into the nest and takes one out from the nest and throws it into another bush nearby. She goes home happily.

After a month, the mummy duck goes to the bush again, to see if her egg is hatched. To her surprise, she sees a biy python hatching on the nest!

"Oh my God!" shouts the mummy duck in her heart.

She comes at the right time, the small duckling is slowly coming out from her egg. The python is surprised to see one of the eggs is hatched while others are not (snake eggs need double the time of duck eggs). To her more surprised, she sees a duckling coming out of the egg!

The python is just hungry, so she opens her month and swallows the duckling!
