Since the pullet will be Bonnie Blue...I had a thought of Blue Barry for the cockeral ( get it?) Blue Barry

Now that is VERY cute! I will put it on the list of things to consider!

Love the final decision on the names.

The links are a very nice touch. I can't say I know who BonnieBlue was
but now I know a little about Mosby. Wow I learned some history on
a Saturday morning. Nice


My orps are skittish too. (1 splash hen, 1 hen that looks like your's, 2 dark
gray/black FAT cockerals)

Bonnie Blue is the little girl from Gone With The Wind. The daughter of Rhett and Scarlett, named for the Bonnie Blue Flag.

A nice name for the cockeral...

Mine aren't skittish so hoping them come around...just takes some getting use to you...I mean they did walk thru the house and over the dogs on a occasion...lol

They are not skittish. Since being in a new place they needed time to settle in. They do come up to me but they are not ready to let me handle them yet. They do stand quietly near my hands and watch me. I know they will come around very soon and will let me hold them.
