My chickens tend named by characteristics, as in "that sweet silver one," (profile picture) "the nice one" "that jerk with the peacomb" and "the (insert random slightly off-colour swearword)" But over the years, a few sweet pets have earned names.

My two named cockerels are Gordon and Edmund (nice location, by the way), and in the past, I have had Redneck, Hemorrhage, Squeaker, Chester and Bertha, who was supposed to be a hen.

Lavender, Cynthia, Sylvia, Elizabeth, Adeline, Mikey (I named her Michelle. Black hen. Nothing whatsoever to do with the Obamas.) Agnes, Lacey, Charlotte, and Joyce.

I like old names. Can you tell?

I know how you feel about the rooster that was sposed to be a hen. My mom was adamant that our little cochin chick was a girl and he ended up as Wanda Sadly he died this summer at the ripe old age of 7. If you ever want an amazing chicken, both in personality and beauty, get a cochin! !!!

My layers don't have names since I mostly can't tell them apart. The one exception is named A***ole, for obvious reasons.

I decided to name my bantam chicks though. Each type has a theme. The black ones are food related: Chicken Nugget, Fajita, and Nacho. The chipmunk ones are old people names: Amos, Earl, Edna, Harold, and Wallace. And the black and white ones are flowers: Rose, Lily, Petunia, Violet, and Poppy (the smallest).

My horses have always had serious names, so I enjoyed giving silly names for once.
