[This_chicks_place]

Honey, Pooh, Lily, Mimi, Penny, Lacey, Baby and Bo the Big Guy. So.......yep, we name them!

 

[Milk Glass Chicky]

Any animal we've ever had, we named. The majority of the chickens we've had were named after celebrities and fictional characters from movies etc.. The hen and rooster we have now are named Heidi and Seal, after the super model Heidi Klum and her singer husband Seal.

I have a couple of names picked out for the next two particular breeds of hens I want, and as far as if we bought or hatched a batch of chicks, I would have a list of names compiled but just wait until the chicks were older to stick them on them, due to sexing and distinguishing their individual personalities. I have in mind a combination of fictional characters and just old fashioned names, rather than celebrities this time.

Wow! I forgot about this thread.

I did finally name one. I call him rooster.

 

[Linn Bee]

Yes, my chickens all have names. That is the granddaughter's idea, not mine.

I did name Lucy, with her crooked comb she was easy to identify and always underfoot. Then I named Lacy whose comb looks like interlocked fingers and who is close behind Lucy when I turn around. Granddaughter wanted all of them named so Inga and Hilda the twins with twisty combs were named. Henrietta became the name of the last Australorp. To me she's just "the other one" who's not Lacy, Lucy, Inga, or Hilda.
Naming the Lt. Brahmas is tougher. They all have a name, but I don't know which name goes with which hen since the food coloring wore off. LOL There is Freckles, Brook, Clarise, Lil, and Ringo.
The Count of Monte Cristo is called Monte for short. He is a beautiful, hardworking Australorp rooster who helps me take good care of the "girls".

I only name the ones that have very prominant personalities. When I first got my 4 hens, they were named Reba, Goldie, and the Baldie Twins. Unfortunately Reba died but I still call Goldie by her name. As for my two RIR that were previously known as the Baldie Twins- they have many names such as Stupid, Freakout, Psycho, Meanie, and a few names I probably shouldn't mention

. Let's just say my RIR's aren't very nice or friendly!
