A man found me as a tiny baby bird and after walking for over an hour to try to find my owner, stopped at Petrie’s Garden Center where a garden party was being held for the Men’s Garden Club of Philadelphia in preparation for the Philadelphia Flower Show. That’s how I got my name.

I was taken home by a woman who would give me to her neighbor who had over one thousand chickens. He could not accept me because his chickens would harm me, plus he had never seen a bird like me. The lady took me home to her garage for the night.

The following stories chronicle my first three years. These stories include First to Conquer the Husband,
The Cats Next Door,
I Laid My First Egg,
The Fox that Almost Got Me,
The Hearing Aids,
What Kind of Chicken Am I?
The ‘Watch Dog’ Chicken,
My First Snow,
Easter (the neighbors made a bracelet for my leg),
The Quail and the Pheasants.

At this point, the book ends and is ready to go to the printer, but something attacked my left leg. The story continues as I go to the vet, recover, and have a surprise ending that is sad but beautiful!

See you in the book,

Petrie
