Cornbread (I suppose the color? haha)

Black SexLinks:
Diamond
Zero-Zero (dont ask, this was my 2 year olds pick)

Barrred PR:

Emma oldfashioned BR
Willow a buff that had greenish legs as a chick

Velvet a Blue and red Buff orpinton mix She looked like velvet when I first got her
Maxine She use to be Big Mack until I found she was a hen
violet, I love flowers
Rosy, had the rosiest comb first.
Misty a splash orp and Stormy a splash orp male that I got in bad weather. So I named them after it.
On the coast I have three EE's
Lucy the red head , Cricket because she use to hop all over the place
Then there is Bella. My Grand daughter named her
Gloria Jean

I have Vindaloos and Marsala. They will probably end up as pets. That wasn't my intention, so the other two have no names. I like to just think of them as "tasty on toast".

 

[Bellavista]

Henny Penny (because she is copper colored) is a Partridge Rock
Rosie is a Black Austrolorp
Miss Daisey is an Americauna
Petunia is our Copper Maran
Tiger Lily is a Barred Rock
and our newest addition is
Olive who is, you guessed it, an Olive Egger.
We're new to country life, but have decided to only name animals that we don't plan to eat. That being said, when I told my husband that I want to raise 2 sheep, he suggested that we call them Shishka and Bob!

 

[SwedishDude99]

Hershey is a welsummer because of her chocolate colored eggs
Sunny is a silver laced Wyandotte
Omelette is a red sex link
Pepper is a jersey giant
Sarah (adopted chicken) is a barred rock
Mr. Ruffle-rump (awesome name, I know!) is an Easter egger but I can't keep Roos so he's going away
Mordecai is a blue Swedish duck
Rigby is a black swedish duck
Pops is a blue swedish duck
And I have a silkie and another ameracauna on the way that have yet to be named!

I chose names for their personalities. Radio Flyer-the small red because she was flying first as a chick and would ride on our shoulders. Then we have May, April, and Lucy.
