Hello! I'm doing some research for an article I'm writing, and would love to get some first-hand responses from those who have chickens, as I do not.
Do you name your chickens? What names do you call them? Are any names recycled in your flocks? Are there any superstitions about naming chickens? Are there any taboos? What tips or suggestions do you have for naming your birds? Do you choose NOT to name chickens, and if so, why? Do you make a point to give every bird in your flock a name (even in larger flocks of 100+)? Is there a cut-off point in numbers, where it simply becomes too much of a hassle to name all of your birds?
By answering, you give consent to the use of such details. Credit for experiences to be given according to your user name, unless otherwise specified. Many thanks!
(Admin, apologies if this is in a bad place. Could you please move this thread to a more appropriate area? Many thanks!)
