What is Your Favorite Word to Describe Your Flock?

[analyticalblonde]

My main flock all come running when I say “chickie chickens”. We have a bunch of chicks we hatched this spring that are all mostly black so they are “the vultures” when referring to if they have been fed or not. I also picked up a trio of one WL and two CCL and those three are referred to as the “road runners” since they are much sleeker than my other birds.

ROAD RUNNERS!....Gotta love it!

My 2 are "cold blooded", I am completely convinced that they would eat me if i was smaller than them. They look at me with one cold blooded eye, they are thinking of a way to kill me. I spoil them to, they give me 2 eggs a day.

I feel like this when I get home.

So, I have seen wonderful terms of endearments on BYC that oozes love for each person's girls.

I was just wondering what word or term of love you use when talking about your girls...?

List them away because I would love to see what you call your girls....

And you? What do you call YOURS??

And you? What do you call YOURS??

I call mine "sweeties". I sing-song it every time, multiple times a day when I go out to visit them. It is such a wonderful experience when they start to sing back to me! And, I usually sing them the same song I have sung to them since they were day-olds..."Good Morning to You...Good Morning to You...Your All in Your Places with Bright Shining Faces...Good Morning to You...Good Morning to You...!" then I trail off with some stupid sing-song but hey, I've got the best audience in my off-key notes ever! I do have individual names for them but they are quite novice... My flock is 10 sweeties...2 Barred Rocks, 2 Lavendar Orpingtons, 2 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Ameraucanas, 2 Red New Hamshire Reds...so there is...Miss Pasty Butt (she had it the worst!) and Miss Carmella (my Buffs), Miss Van Buren and Miss Van Buren II (my Amerucanas..because of their 19th-century beard tuffs), Red and Red II (my New Hampshire Reds), Salt and Pepper (my Barred Rocks), and Sue and Legs (my Lavendar Buffs). I still have a hard time between the Barred Rocks and the New Hampshire Reds but they all have a little piece of my heart nonetheless...my sweeties!
