I think they name themselves, that's why the names pop into our heads randomly!
I have a bunch of chickens named weird things, like Squirrel and Siracha. Then there's the "normal" names like Maureen, Molly, Wilma and Lucy (RIR's named after famous redheads).
I wanted to name my DB roo a stately...
I really was worried about my eye, though! 😳
She got really close, probably because my eyes are shiny... or she was gazing into my soul. Hope she didn't find me lacking! 😆
Well, these pretty girls have decided to claim you as park of their flock. You obviously have some great eats at your place!
I got Fluffernutter and Rhett from a local lady that lives close to me, in early November. They were five months old. The second I saw the Light Brahma roo...
I'm pretty much in love with all the Brahmas. The Lights look like toasted marshmallows, the Buffs look like caramel lattes, the Dark roos look like Downton Abbey Gentleman dressed for dinner and the Dark hens look like those trippy posters in the '90's you had to unfocus your eyes at inorder to...

They are pretty girls! I also have four, Light Brahma pullets. Their names are Magnolia, Sugar, Tofu, and Coconut. I wanted to have six, but the others kept dying. I've had a run of failure to thrive chicks from Rural King, so I won't be getting any more from the store. We'll just order from...
This is Fluffernutter, my Light Brahma roo. He is about 7 months old. He is extremely mellow, and all the hens love him. He doesn't let Rhett bully the hens, he just steps in front of Rhett and puffs up like, "Do you really want to roll?"
Rhett will halfheartedly peck at him and strut away...
