I have my first ever chicken which is a white Silkie called Shatzy. The name comes from the German word "Schatz" which means darling because that is just what she is. Next week I will be picking up my Australorps. I'm not quite sure what I will name the girls but I thought of "Liebling" or "Liebchen" which is Love also depending how loveable they will be . I'll have to think of a few good Aussie names as well.
I have two black sexlinks; Midnight and Blackberry, two red sexlinks; Amber and Goldie, three barred rocks; Pepper, Pebble, and Checker, and last but not least, some blue Ameraucanas, Moonbeam, Ocean, and Tsunami.
