Hello, Dolly!
Dolly has become quite a dominant personality in our house lately. Being that she is the largest and the most developed of the chicks, she figured out what her wings are for first. Initially, she was the first to get out of the brooder. Then she decided that since she could, she would start roosting on the edge of the box when it was nap time. 
Dolly has also taken a keen liking to Young Master. She was the first to eat out of his hand. She hops up on the edge of the box to be close to him when he stops by the brooder.
But today beat all!
I have my computer set up in the kitchen and Young Master, being a product of GH, is a computer geek. He enjoys playing computer games whenever he gets the chance. As he was playing his game this afternoon, Dolly fluttered up onto the edge of the box to be close to him. Then she took courage and flew onto his shoulder! It shocked Young Master, who called for me to come rescue him from his attack chicken. Instead, I grabbed the camera!
After taking several photos of Young Master with is chicken/parrot, I placed Dolly back in the brooder. She promptly jumped up and flew to his shoulder again. I, again, placed her back in the brooder. Then I got my camera ready and was able to catch her in flight the next time! 
It was shocking the first time, funny the second, and even funny the third and fourth. Now it’s just annoying. Dolly will fly onto anyone who’s sitting at the computer now. She’s flown onto my shoulder three times now since I’ve started this post. She’s asleep in my lap now. If it wasn’t for the chicken droppings, I’m sure she’d sleep in my bed!
