On day 3 of trying to hatch an egg in my boobs

"Zapraska" is the Slovak word for "roux."
That’s so cool! In Bulgarian, “zapraska” is the past tense of “it started slamming”, used humorously for heavy rain that’s slamming you into the ground :lol:

I like the roux/roo connection... because he’s a rooster :) Clever.

I hadn't even thought of that! I just named him "Zapraska" because his down was kind of the color of a zapraska. And it sounds nice.
I have a couple of other chickens that are named after Slovak foods -- Kolachi is named after a filled yeast pastry, Paska is named after a traditional Easter bread, and Hrutka is named after a traditional egg cheese made for Easter.

I love the Slovak food theme. And it's always fun to see how different Slavic languages use the same words differently. In Bulgarian, kolache is a bagel, and hrutka is a hunting dog :lol:
