A few days ago I got a call from my uncle. It seemed that a small chicken had wandered into the yard outside his woodworking shop. None of the neighbors were missing a chicken so he called me to see if I wanted her. I went to pick her up and found one of the ugliest chickens I have ever seen. I wasn't even convinced that she was a chicken.

She has started to look a little better, though I still wonder sometimes if she is really a chicken, lol. She spends her days hiding in the hostas beside the chicken coop. In the evening when we go out to see the chickens she will come over for a treat. If the other chickens come near her, she jumps into my lap so I will protect her. She is the sweetest thing and is quickly becoming my favorite. I have considered trying to find another pullet of similiar age to be her friend but I am currently enjoying being her buddy.

What does a chicken look like that is part turken? That's what the head shape reminds me of. Anyone remember the song - Poor old ugly Gladys Brown --------

Easter Egger? I notice the green feet. She's a cutie! She has a graceful look about her. Once she gets over the "rough" stage, I'm sure she'll be beautiful.
