Ok, likin' this chicken name thread!
My welsummer roos are named:
Rastus (I taka care of de hens mon...) very colorful guy...
Jasper (he already had name when I got him) very friendly and the least dominate in the flock.
My Speckled Sussex roo I call Boss Bigin' since he is bigger and bossier then the other roos. B.B. whipped the other roos right off the get go when I turned them out together to free range. He reminds me of the character "Boss Hog" off the old Dukes of Hazzard TV show. He is definitely the cock of the walk with his speckled sussex ladies. Boss Bigin has a favorite hen I call Girlie since, well....she is his favorite girl.
Only one of my welsummer hens has a name, Henny Henny. I love her the most as she is very tame and loves to talk to me in "henspeak" The other Wellie girls look too much alike and none of them are quite as tame as Henny Henny.
I also have a mutt hen named HUZZY because she IS ONE! She is the smallest but definitely the feistiest of all the hens. She is the only one who tries to peck holes in my hand when I get eggs out from under her. The only reason I don't send her to Freezer Camp is she is very broody and a little feathered egg laying machine.
