The Combination of Mother hen & her Chicks with the Rooster have  significant symbolic meaning. :

We’ve all heard the expression “mother hen” and those of us who’ve had the experience of observing mother hens with their chicks know why the term was coined. They are diligent in seeing to the needs of their newborns. Furthermore, they are excellent teachers to their offspring. They give their little ones everything they need to know to survive. Then, quite suddenly, the mother hen completely disassociates with the chicks. This back-turning to their young is essential for the survival of these chicks. It might be considered “tough love” but the chick has no choice but to sink or swim.

One of the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac, the Rooster is a Chinese symbol of honesty, as well as physical and moral fortitude. It is of the yang attribute and signifies fortune, luck, fidelity, protection as well as bossiness. For More information about the year of the Rooster Click here.
