Their Names

[PixieChixie]

I still don't have any hens yet.

But I helped pick, name, and raise my best friend's chicks. I guess I would be... Either their godmother or aunt.
Anyhoo,
Ameraucana-Falcon
Australorp- princess
RIR- red (original, right?)
Barred rock- Dot
White leghorn-Duck

Poachy

Omelet

My husband would fully approve of your "old fashioned" names!

Yeah---I wanted the hens to sound like a colonial Puritan sewing circle! And Abajah, the preacher.

I like to wait untill I see the personalities in all my babies before naming them. It took me a little bit to find the right ones for my 7 girls but I decided on
Gloria (Mamma hen from Milo and Otis)
Sammy (A friend has daughter with that name)
Nisan ( My brother named her because of the truck he inherited from our dad)
Biscuit (I just got this stuck in my head and it sounded good)
Friday (My friend named her when she got her for me)
Noomi (Main character from Girl who kicked the hornets nest)
Satsu (Little girl from Memoires of a geisha)
I get funny looks when I tell people I named my chickens but I wouldnt have it any other way.

I love all the names here especially the old fashioned ones. My favorite tho is the rooster that is "toast".

I have an Agnes and Annabelle too! The rest of mine are Daisy, Minnie Pearl, Scarlett, Mabelline, Clara, Stella and Beulah.

I have a Daisy and a Clara as well. I really wanted to name one "Hazel" but a friend just named her baby that, so it seemed wrong. We had a Cuckoo Maran, Jessie Ruth, who died on August 16.
