Before now, almost everybody believed that the Cock was a member of the human community, because he has lived among humans for a very long time. He understands human language and even psychology. He has so become part of them that he is now their time keeper — announcing to them when it is dawn, when it is noon and when it is evening time etc.

So, contrary to the general belief, Cock is from a village very far away from the human community — his village is far into the hinterlands — a place that the inhabitants are still living primitive lives. And Cock being a traveller has found the human community to be more advanced and more habitable with rich social life and most importantly with rich varieties of food. He settled down in the human community and left his relatives back in the village and rarely visits them.

On normal grounds, he has reached the age of marriage and should get married. It’s been long people started expecting him to get married considering the fact that he is now a mature adult. But he has not married, instead he goes about chasing different hens and catching cruise with them. He has severally been teased to get married to one of them, but often he laughs it off and keeps doing what gives him pleasure and, in the eyes of the humans around him, refuses to be responsible.
