Cikavac is a demonic creature which is created by a witch or an evil woman to
serve her. The first egg given by a black chicken is taken and the witch keeps
it under her left arm for 40 days until a Cikavac emerges. During that time the
woman mustn't wash her face or mention God because otherwise the ritual will not
work. When the Cikavac emerges he looks like a bladder or bellows and he has a
voice just like a little chicken. The witch sends him to eat milk from the
neighbouring stalls every night. At dawn the Cikavac returns to the witch and
ejects all the milk and fat that she then eats or sells to others. The people
believe that it is a great sin to create a Cikavac.
