[LiLRedCV]

I have natural red hair (not the orangey red, more auburn-ish) and people used to call me LiLRed from the time I was as toddler... but then I also love convertibles (have owned 6 of them in my lifetime so far and all but one was red! LOL) and on car titles, the body style of a convertible is listed as "CV" (as opposed to coupe or sedan or wagon or van). So that's how I come by my username.

And for the curiouser mindset regarding avatars, mine is of my Iowa Blue rooster ("Bleu") - which I took myself.

Theese are good (and some sad) keep em coming.

 

[MeatKing]

My name is MeatKing, cause. The first ckickens I had were meaties.. I knew nothing at all about chickens and my mil, called Cornish X, "MeatKings"

I've often thought of changing my user name, now that I know more about chickens

 

[mamachicken888]

Well, my username is a big 'well, duh...' for most of you. When I got those 25 little tiny chicks in the mail, I was instantly all motherly and would have wrestled a grizzly bear to protect them... ah, hem. I know, silly me.

Now the 888 part is because 8 is the biblical number of new beginnings, and this is the third major season change in my life - retirement and a mini-farm. I do still work but it's a labor of love and I'm home all the time now.

So, there you have it!

 

[MadameDork]

Madame Dork was the name my husband gave me when I asked "What name should I use?" while setting up my Xbox account. It stuck. I've had it since 2005. Since I'm a huge gaming nerd, other than my birth name, Jaime, I will answer to MD or Madame since that is what most call me when playing games together. If I picked a different name for me here, I wouldn't recognize my own posts.

 

[yankeefan]

No surprise here, me and my family are fans of the New York Yankees. And, as you may have guessed, unique names have never been my strong suit. I mean, we adopted an adult cat who was much "nicer" than our current felines and he wound up being named "NiceCat". Real witty, right?

 

[danielle82]

I wasw born in 1982...and I'm not very creative when it comes to user names ?

 

[waterchicken]

My username - waterchicken - I got 'cause I'm the one who's in charge of our animals. We had a Rhode Island Red (dubbed "Red" by my little sister) not too long ago, he charged my dad, dad whacked Red's head with a board. Red never was the same after that, he kept chasing our ducks out of the pond

, he would sit in it for hours on end. My youngest brother called him a water-chicken

, and because I was the only one he'd let near him before he died my dad started calling me waterchicken.
