SERGEI SHELL, 63,
Eccentric Chicken Farming Millionaire
A Cracked Egg

A Russian immigrant, Sergei Shell was fond of telling everyone that he came to Britain and set up his egg empire with “ One cockerel, twenty eight hens, eleven sacks of hen food and £15.26 in the bank”. Through hard work, luck, and the occasional unorthodox business practice, the enterprise prospered until he became a millionaire several times over.

A bachelor until the age of 37, Sergei’s first wife unfortunately died, leaving him with a daughter, Melanie, whom he idolised. Sergei consequently remarried several times, his current wife being Eggina Crack, the show-business agent. Sergei was once married to the model, Norma Snockers. They divorced on bad terms and at his death Sergei was still grudgingly paying her an allowance.

Sergei lived in a country mansion, several miles away from his egg production plant. However he kept fifty or so chickens in hen houses on the edge of the estate. It has been rumoured that these birds, called “Red Russian Roosters” were a special new breed he was experimenting with.
