Summary
This illustrated fable tells the story of a destitute gambler who trades his only possession, a hen, to a kind farmer in exchange for food for his family. Although the farmer's wife initially criticizes the deal, she becomes consumed by greed when the bird miraculously begins producing eggs made of gold. Dissatisfied with receiving only one treasure a day, she decides to slaughter the animal to harvest all its wealth at once. To her horror, she discovers the bird is empty inside, leaving her with nothing. Ultimately, the story serves as a stark warning that impatience and avarice can destroy a person's long-term prosperity.
