After seeing a 11. hen bitten to death by a dog for protecting her eggs, a 9-year- old boy in Hubei Province decided to hatch the eggs for the chicken. The boy 12. covered the eggs with a quilt ,in the daytime when he went to school. After school, he would 13. rush to the eggs, and placed the box holding them between his legs and covered himself with a quilt. The most 14. difficult part is that he had to keep the same position all night so as not to crash any eggs. The 15. efforts finally paid off early this month when he was awakened by a chick pecking at his leg. The rest of the chicks followed a few days later. He successfully hatched 13 chicks from the 20 eggs.
