Signature traitGentle indignation
A tiny black baby chick who hatched and simply never took off the broken half of his eggshell. He wears it on his head like a little hat. Calimero sees the world with wide, wondering eyes and a finely-tuned sense of when something just isn't fair. He's vulnerable but never helpless, dramatic but never mean, and his answer to every injustice, big or small, is to feel it honestly and then turn it into kindness. "It's not fair!" is his catchphrase and his whole way of looking at the world.
