    I guess this is part of:

    La gallina popujada ha puesto un huevo en la cebada...

    I think it could be something like puffy or fluffy...feathered...

    hope it helps!

    May be "popujada" is a local expression in some part of the Spanish-speaking world.

    La gallina popujada
    puso un huevo en la cebada
    puso uno, puso dos,
    puso tres, puso cuatro,
    puso cinco, puso seis,
    puso siete, puso ocho.
    Guárdate bizcocho
    para mañana a las ocho.

    A delightful little Mexican childrens song.

    The hen pushed (popujada significa empujar)
    She lays an egg in the barley.
    She lays one, she lays two,
    she lays three, she lays four,
    she lays five, she lays six,
    she lays seven, she lays eight.
    Save the biscuit for tomorrow at eight.
