A pictorial history of Roy...

The day we brought her home...she's Matthew's chicken...

Not very pretty at this age. I remember Hair saying "That's one ugly chicken...

But very sweet...loves having her tummy rubbed and goes to sleep when Matthew rubs it...

Here she is...getting a little bigger...not quiet so gangly-looking...

And a little bigger...she doesn't grow too much more after this picture, just aquires her beautiful comb and wattles.

This is her today...

Isn't she pretty? (The sun was in Joshua's eyes.)

I remember that from when we raised them. I really liked it when we got to see newly hatched chick. All yellow and fluffy.

We ended up with soooo many chickens that, I swear I remember this correctly, we ate chicken for two years straight! After that time, I didn't touch any for more than 10 years.

Really enjoyed this...thanks!

So does Jar Jar get a similar post once she starts laying and thus graduates to hen-hood?

Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl going out of the door

Turn around (turn around)
Turn around (turn around)
Turn around and you’re a young girl goin’ out of the door

Where are you going my little one, little one
Dirndls and petticoats, where have you gone
Turn around and you’re tiny, turn around and you’re grown
Turn around and you’re a young wife with babes of your own

Turn around and you’re a young
Turn around and you’re a young wife with babes of your own

Where are you going my little one, little one
Where are you going my baby my own
Turn around and you’re two, turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl going out of my door

*snif*
