The values of cocks and hens often refer to their roles in agriculture and food production. Hens are primarily valued for their egg-laying capabilities, providing a significant source of protein and income.

"Of Cocks and Hens" is a short story by the author H. H. Munro, better known as Saki. The narrative revolves around a rural setting where a farmer's wife, who is keen on keeping chickens, engages in a humorous conversation with her husband about the merits and follies of poultry farming. The story cleverly juxtaposes the mundane aspects of rural life with the absurdities of human behavior, ultimately highlighting themes of gender roles and the absurdity of societal expectations. The witty dialogue and ironic twists make it a quintessential example of Saki's sharp social commentary.
