Oh, I like the names that you have for your kids.

Mine are Draven, Sharra (shar-rah), E'owyn, and Brynne. Brynne is the most common, but we couldnt think of a name that fit. My husband wanted to name her Harley. I said no way.

Joel - I really like the name Bjorn. Man, makes me want to go visit Iceland. grrrrr

Their full names are Bjorn Magnus and Lars Anders. Good call on not naming a kid Harley, then again if you're allways cleaning up after them maybe it fits.

Really like Draven BTW.

Yep, Im a big Sci-fi and Fantasy fan. Soren is a cool name too.

I like sci-fi, but I have a terrible memory and never remember character names.

I don't have kids, but I do have a "list" of possible names:

Judith Ann
Hartley
Miller
Mac
Campbell
Burke

I like last names. Some people have two 1st names, so why not have two last names??

My husband swears that our first one will be named Bocefus Danger... regardless of gender. I made a deal with him and told him that the first child he gives birth to, he can name whatever he wants. Though I'm not entirely opposed to "Danger" as a middle name.

I have friends - the Johnsons - they named their son Lucky Mister. Lucky Mister Johnson.

Still no eggs yet

Dont blame you on the Bocefus Danger. I feel for the kid.

No worries. Unless you are in a sci fi film, hubby is not likely to be giving birth any time soon.

That's hilarious, Lars was almost Soren. The only Soren we could think of was Kierkegaard and that made the name seem very serious which in the end wouldn't have fit Lars. We both agreed that if we had a third he would be Soren or she would be Ingrid.

My hens have basically quit laying. I got 6 today and only two were W/BW. I'll start saving tomorrow for Wednesday. (My day off next week) I'll do what I can.
I thought that you got three Ams? I DID have one EE that laid really blue... and I thought I always caught her eggs but apparently not. I've sold all of my EEs now with the exception of the Birchen EE and she lays DARK green so there is no mistaking her egg. The partridge EE & the White Blue Head EE &the white EE were sold with my Giant Partridge Cochin. The white Blue head is the one that laid really blue eggs. Any blue eggs I get now have to be from the W/BW Ameraucanas... can't be anything else.

I've watched the roo get successful almost every day now with the Polish... but I haven't had an egg from her in over a week. Figures.

I'm hoping I can get in on this...

I bought a few chicks from Vanessa a few weeks ago. She is very non-nonsense and nice. I even petted a few of those meat chicks you all will be butchering. They were terribly adorable. I never thought I would find meaties appealing, but she grows them out slow with lots of space. Watching them waddle around was endearing, but I still thought, "Mmmmmm....Chicken nuggets."

Have fun!
