Nuggywoo Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 What would be the best way to describe a 'gang' of chickens? A Peck of...? A Feather of...? A Duvet of...? An Asbo? A Bok? A Pageant? What have you done now's? Get out of there's? As you can tell I'm busy at work but I couldn't help wondering - what do you call yours?

surferdog Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Ours are the raptors. They remind me more of a gang of teenage girls rather than old ladies - all that copying each other and running away screaming because I put a live snail in the run (not to mention the bullying.....)

cluckbok Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Ours are the raptors too, aren't they descendants of the dinosaurs. Birds were around then They remind me of raptors!! their shape and the way they hold their tails when they walk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abbey Road Girl Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 A ruffle? (or maybe that should be a roughle...) But I do like flock as that's what they do round your ankles when you've got their treat bowl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hils78 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 According to my poster which Ihave of collective nouns (am I a geek?!) the official term for a group of chickens is a 'Peep' of chickens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
