Oh the laughter!!!

I had never actually paid attention to the words of that song before. I have to say that the name Lola seems VERY fitting.

 

[Slywoody]

Too funny!!!!!! Excellent humor!!!

I would not change Lola's name. It is very fitting...

Now what is Louise?? I am confused

I could be wrong but I think someone is putting us on. Anyone who has had chickens or read a book on them has to recognize that "Lola's" a rooster. Maybe not a bright one but definitely a rooster.

I'm really trying to figure this out! Of course Lola's a rooster - and Lola needs to keep his name as Lola - gotta love the confused chickens! I have a hen that tries to crow

(she's definitely a hen, have gotten eggs from her! I thought Louise was a girl but could it be a different spelling for Louis? This is all messed up! I think "Rancher Hicks" could be onto something...

ETA: VERY "pretty" bird though!! I'd love to have one that looked like that!

Well now, I just happen to think of something and if you read my "trivia" post you might have seen it.
In a coop if there is no rooster a hen will take over the job even beginning to crow. I don't know whether she'll start to look like a rooster though and I'm not sure how common it is. This is according to the recent "Chicken" magazine I bought at TSC.
Maybe someone dropped "lola's" egg on it's head.

Hey..ever made a mistake before? Ever thought something was one way and it wasn't and oh-my-goodness, you turned out to be WRONG? If not, then you are the most incredibly pure and brilliant human being on this planet. I applaud you.

Putting you on? Ummmm...no. I have MUCH better things to do. Trust me.

I had suspicions that Lola was a boy, but when I saw Louise (yes, Louise is a boy too) mate with Lola, I thought maybe I was wrong...that maybe Lola was just a pretty fancy female. She'd never even crowed until two weeks ago and THAT'S not even normal. I've always said she's from another planet bc she's such an odd bird.

I bought my chicks with the understanding they were all girls and named them based on that. I was a newbie to chickens and have since learned I will NEVER buy chicks again based on TSC sexing capabilities! We ended up with 50% males.

At any rate, the names stuck. I don't care one way or the other that their names don't match their private parts.

Getting confirmation that Lola is a boy has been great! My suspicions have been confirmed by all the "experts"-I'm very happy about it!

I will still call her a she, she will still be my favorite lap chicken and I will love her just the same-boy, girl, homosexual or hermaphrodite! She's a love bug and that's all I care about.

So does anyone know what breed she is?!

ETA: Before I forget..I HAVE posted here before about ALL my chickens (even the boys) having girls' names and the reasoning behind it, ....putting you all on? For what?!?!?! So I made a mistake in identifying the sex of my bird-is that a mortal sin? Have I commited a crime? No. I simply made a mistake. I came to ask a question, not to be judged. :rolleyes
