Barred Rock = Jebediah (yep, Jebediah)

Large Buff Orpington = Henny Penny the 1st/Big Henny

Small Buff Orpington = Henny Penny the 2nd/Little Henny

Buff Orp with a big comb = Henny Penny the 3rd/Broody Henny (because she goes broody about once a month)

Black Star = Indigo

and i cannot tell them apart anymore, but of my 2 RIR's, one is named Delaware, and one is named Star. Since i cannot tell them apart anymore, i just refer to both of them as "Little Red"
 
Well, my son and I are a little reluctant to name the hens just in case...you know, we have to eat them for some reason! We don't really have plans to eat them, it's just in case! So we don't get very personal with our names but some of them are:
Dom X BR- "Flatcomb"
Barred Rocks-"Flops To The Left"
"Flops To The Right"
"Yellow Band"
"Pink Band"
"Green Eyes"
We can tell them apart from these descriptive names and they're all individuals!

Buff Orpington - Butterball
2 Old English bantams - Little Lady and Snowball
Silver Laced Wyandotte - Dot
Barred Rock - Josie
Cochin bantam - Penguin
Black Sex-Link - Niglet (boyfriend named her)

We've got five more that are young and don't have names yet. We don't even know what breed some are.

I used to have three mixed breed roosters

Waylen He would belt them out and end his song with a twist of his neck
Willie He would sing his song with a little Nasal quality
and
Bubba He didnt know he was a rooster I never heard him Doodle do. He was half again larger than the others. Bubba would stand around and watch Walen and Willie pontificate and posture and pose for the girls... Like he was watching TV. Tiping his head from side to side.

Heck he never even grew tail feathers... Now I know he was an Auracana...

Then one day I heard this beautiful quail like song... it was like bells with a doodle do in there.... I thought Walen and Willie had taught the Wild quail how to Doodle Do... So I started watching for the quail.... Sitting in my chair in the back yard I heard it again... Waylen belted his out.... Willie added a nasal twang.... and here comes Bubba... With the Bell like quail voice. That was the day his name changed from Bubba to Gomer....

For those who dont know Gomer Pyle was a character played on TV by Jim Neighbors.... He was a goofy comedian Southern bumpkin good hearted character. Who Was classically trained in Opera.... and very very good at it.
 
Names from my 3 and 5 year old boys!!

2 warrens , =Scooby and Doo
leghorn bantam, =Flappy
Silkie, =Pecky (because she pecked all the other hens when they all arrived)
2 tiny ? bantams called Bubble and Squeak

Flappy is the only one who I cant get to tame and pecky isnt very sociable either despite that been the reason I had her as Silkies nature fitted what I wanted
