@FortCluck , I have 2 hens 3yrs old, 2 hens 2yrs old, and 3 pullets 9mo old. I'm considering giving away the 2yr old hens (SLW) they're jerks but still laying. Can't imagine starting over every 16 months, I'd be exhausted!! I just started this journey 3 yrs ago. Yes, they all have names...LOL. They don't allow chickens in my suburb....foolish. Lots of McMansions, Range Rovers, you get the idea. Funny, this all used to be farm land!!![]()
Mine all have names too! LOL well, except the boys! Unless idiot, dummy, “hey stupid!”, etc. count!
meant in the most loving way possible!!
I tend to yell at them like “hey idiot shut up!” When they get to crowing lol the girls have real names. And Jack gets a name since he’s an official flock member now.
