Werner Scholles, star of Mainz’s market.

Accompanied for ages by Moritz, his Obixto cockerel, and bit sad these days at its passing.

He’s been on TV heaps, spreading his jokes and wisdom. (Tells school classes that the brown eggs come from cockerels and white ones from hens….)

Ms jb fronted up the other day and said “Oh, only 1 egg left”, referring to an almost empty tray.

“Tja, Mädche” he says ” Des iss leider erblich bedingt. Moi Vatter war genauso…”

Footnote (NSFW):

“Ei” in German is vulgar-colloquial for “testicle”

Ms jb’s innocent remark was countered with “That’s genetics – my father was the same”
