For Christian Owambo families, both Christmas and Easter are the most important religious holidays during the year. This is also the time when the family comes together and celebrates. One aspect of the celebrations is to follow the family traditions and to take pleasure in joint meals or to give presents to friends.

On this Holy Thursday morning a surprisingly huge present arrived at Villa Sustainche & Lisa: A real vital and proud Owambo cock ! H-Sustain™ was instantly prepared to cook a nice Owambo chicken dish for the Easter weekend ahead.

Well, this was – of course – before Sustainche & Lisa spotted the Easter present, which had been sent with kind regards by Meme Tresia and Tatekulu Fillipus from Sustainche Farm. As soon as our two little friends had a closer look to the cock, Lisa was sure that he looks a bit like Heinrich. Lisa & Sustainche immediately started to discuss about Heinrich. “It appears to us that we’ve found a new friend”, Sustainche finally concluded. “And friends can neither be killed, nor can they be cooked in a poiki pot”, was Sustainche’s & Lisa’s clear decision.

At this point it became evident enough that an Owambo chicken dish for Easter was only an illusion. But what to do now ? First, it was to observe Heinrich. Being a bit scared at the very beginning, Heinrich started to explore his new surrounding environment and enjoyed the extended garden. But Heinrich, being a proud Owambo cock didn’t stopped there. Since his wings were still unbroken, he started flying around and explored the neighbouring gardens as well. H-Sustain™ was busy catching him ! Sustainche & Lisa obviously enjoyed watching the show ! … ; ) There is no doubt: Heinrich is an amazingly good looking Owambo cock !

To be concluded !
