    KNOWN throughout the world as the ``chicken boy’‘, Sujit Kumar grew up in a Fijian hen house.

    His father was murdered when he was a toddler. His mother committed suicide.

    Sujit’s grandfather left him in a chook pen where he learnt to walk like a chicken, cluck, roost andmimic the head movements of his fowl friends.

    Earlier this month, Sujit, his Fijian carer and his Australian rescuer Elizabeth Clayton, who removed Sujit from an agedcare home eight years ago, spent time in Wakerley while undergoing medical tests.

    ``On this trip we have confirmed he has epilepsy,’’ Ms Clayton said.

    While Sujit is mute, Australian neurologists believe he first communicated by clucking.

    Ms Clayton said the team was now trying to teach Sujit certain sounds and social skills including shaking hands and eye contact.

    ``He loves attention. He has never been socialised.

    ``He has missed out on that.

    ``That’s what you call a feral child (a human with traits of an animal).

    ``He’s not sure how to react yet.

    ``In shopping centres he’ll beeline it to a person, someone he has a kind of spiritual connection with.

    ``He loves children.

    ``He still has chicken-like behaviour like ******* the head, he still claws at his food.

    ``He used to roost but he is starting to verbalise.



    ``He has come a long way, he used to bite and scratch me, he was wild.

    ``Having him sitting with people is a milestone.

    ``For 22 years (in the aged care home) he was tied up all through his teenage years.’‘

    With a background in psychology, Ms Clayton, who was widowed when her husband died attempting to climb Mount Everest, lived in Fiji’s capital Suva operating her husband’s furniture business.

    After meeting Sujit, she decided to sell the business and devote her life to caring for him, which led to opening Fiji’s first boys’ orphanage called the Happy Home.

    ``My only hope is that Sujit is in a safe environment, kept occupied and not stuck in a corner tied up like he has been.’‘
