    Chicken Names- whats your chickens name?

    Such clever names for such adorable chooks! My late SLW (my avatar) was Guinevere; EE is Sheena; RIR is Rhodie; Barnevelders are Henrietta and Eggnes; and the soon to arrive chicks: SLW - Greta or Gwen, depending on her personality; Barnevelder roo - Henri.

    Thanks to all who replied to my request for a Barnevelder roo. I decided, after finding someone in Boise to share a chick order with me, to go that route. The girls will just have to wait. Thanks again and Happy (almost) Spring!
