Post what you call your chicks, wether it's 'Ladies', 'Girls' or just 'The chickens' :) If you have 'Other' for an answer, please post it :D

Right now, they are very young and I call them "The Peeps". I'm sure I'll get some more creative names if they get on my bad side. wink.png

I can't call the chickens that, because my rabbit does are called the "Ladies". That was before we had chickens. (:

Usually, I call them "The Girls."  When I'm feeling a little ditzier, though, I call them The Chickie-doos.

My chicken's name is Ebony but I always call her Ebby.
