This story was very delighting. It was also a very unique topic not most people will write about this kind of thing. But you did and it turned out to be very good. It was very humorous. I wish I could have a colored peep. The image of a chicken running about with its head cut off is funny and I wonder if its bloody of not. From now on I could tell people chicken can indeed run with its head cut off. Now Ill have that image in my head.

Too many people take for granted where their food actually comes from. I mean, you go to a fast food place and order chicken wings. You look at them in the box and think that they must grow them that way- just the wings. And what about chicken nuggets? I don’t remember chickens having nuggets.

Great story Michele! I came from a medium sized family but we were not raised on a farm but in the city. Now that I have read this I think it would be fun to live on a farm because you get to see chickens running around headless.

Great story Michele! Coming from a large family myself I can imagine trying to get chickens for dinner and then having the chicken running around with its head cut off. It was good!

I can realate to when I was a kid on a farm and living with chickens but never cut the heads off. I thought that was hillarious about the chicken running with out its head off. Funny and well thought out.

A very interesting story. I enjoyed the vivid description of the loving parent, the cities of McKeesport and Pittsburgh, and the excitement of the author as a kid when introduced to so many different animals you have on the farm.

Very colorful. This story actually came alive for me. Having been a suburban girl all of my life, I was actually able to visualize the entire story in my head. It was informative and entertaining.

I like it. I also grew up on a farm and I ate chicken a lot but never saw a chicken running around headless. I would find that funny. I thought that it was very creative and hillarious. This person is the best essay I have read so far.

I like it a lot. I grew up in a big family on a farm but I never expeirenced a chicken running around headless. That would be funny to see and at the same time it would be scary.
