What is Your Favorite Word to Describe Your Flock?

[Beccazon]

OMG...do you feed them? I'm dying here...the visuals are quite disturbing but absolutely intriguing! My sweeties are not quite so primitive (spoiled to the core) but I have seen some National Geographic videos of chickens eating mice whole in one gulp! Still, a part of me respects their relinquishing way of taking care of business!

Here it's toads. HOW they get them in that tiny beak I cannot understand. Poor toadies.

This is one of the things I love about chickens, they can always bring a smile to my face or make me laugh out loud. They run so ... absurdly. I know God designed them and they're actually quite efficient, but who can watch a chicken run and not crack up? And how can you not believe God has a sense of humor? No matter what my day is like, chickens just bring me joy.

Agreed! My brahmas NEVER get old to watch...they run like fat old ladies in poofy bloomers and aprons, chasing toddlers for a washin'! My FAVE

Ah, but do you ever stop to think about what the animals must think of us humans?

“Ha ha, look Carmella! She is picking up poop AGAIN!!”
“What on earth does she want it for anyway, I tried it once and I can tell you, It. Does. Not. Taste. Good!”
“Oh I know. And have you ever watched her RUN? Bahaha! It’s hilarious!!”

Mine also get Chickies!

However, what I call them really depends on their behaviour at the time

My Silkies tend to be called my little trumpets too because they sound like them.

Heathens or hussies just depends on the day. At dinner they're nerds.
In proper company they're the kids.

For the whole flock, its Chickie Babes, for Sephora is Big Momma, or Chickie Momma.

I would love to audit you annual ballot box. I bet you promise them all sorts of nonsense if they'll vote you back into power.

All my current pullets and hens have pet status so they have names.
When I have cockerels I call them little men. Pullets and hens get called girls.
If I was to use a few words to describe my current flock it would be “not what I had planned”.
