Oh man you guys! I'm starting to think it was terrible idea coming to ask you for names!
Now I'm thinking, can they have 6 names...maybe I should get more chickens and use all the names!?
Ginger is cute as heck! But so is Ethel and Lucy.

I try not to "name" them, it makes it easier to eat them if thats the ultimate plan.....
I cant make soup outta "Ethel and Lucy" with good concience
We did have 2 cornish x - Pot pie and dumpling. They were....
