“Standing hen from a clay pot.”

Meaning

This proverb refers to someone who forgets their origins or humble beginnings once they achieve a better status or situation. A 'standing hen from a clay pot' (meaning, a hen cooked in a pot) has lost its original form, just as a person might lose touch with their roots. It can also imply someone trying to conceal their background.
