What was the name if your first broody girl?

My broodiest hen is a Silkie named Sammie...this is her 3rd time going broody and she's currently raising 7 babies. She first started sitting when she was only 7 months old, and now she's almost a year and a half.




My 2nd broody is a Buff Orpington named Ophelia. She's about 9 months old and raising a single hatchling right now. I haven't uploaded her pics from my phone yet.

 

My first Broody was name Broody!!!

 

My first broody was Bessie, a mottled Java.

My second broody was Yappy (does the egg for call for EVERY hen)...she was quiet for the next 2 months, it was a amazing!

 

Never name a chicken, you may have to eat it one day. Named chickens never taste good, ask me grand daughter. She hasn't eaten chicken in years at my house.

 

Quote:I used to say that, but i found that if i feel good about the way they lived, i can eat them whether or not they have a name - and if i give them a name, i feel like i treated them better while they were here. So i name them.

And my first two broodies who went broody together were Greta (Pearl) and Mathilde (battleax). Greta's babies are 8 weeks old, and she's broody again.

 

Esther. My second broody is Uncle Gumby, and the third broody chicken is Auntie Laamie. Dorothy, my mallard is broody now too.

 

My first and only Broody got her name because of it.... Big Mama! She is a black sex link, she's raised 2 broods now. She is a sweetie!
