puffball Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 hiya there sorry about not being on for ages - i've had a lot of work at school and stuff sorry as for the cockerals we bought the eggs off a really good breeder and he is willing to take them back! (www.benshens.com) what a great guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puffball Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 thanks! by the way - any good ideas for names? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephanieSB Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 by the way - any good ideas for names? Hi Puffball, I think this site is great for finding names: http://www.babynamesworld.com/ I used it to help name my friend's kittens. You can choose to look at just girls names and choose a country or region or ethnicity (she had all Siamese cats so wanted to choose a set of Chinese girls names)... it's a fun site to play with.
