Thought this might be useful or indeed humerous for anyone looking for chicken names...

http://www.freewebs.com/professorchicken/chickennames.htm

 

 

Incidentally we are looking for 3 new names, hence searching and finding this...

 

so far we have : Miss. Pennyapple, and Pecan (Hopefully she will be a light sandy colour) So she will be "Pecan Sandie", which about 6 Americans on the west coast will find amusing, because they don't make that candy on the east coast any more.

 

just looking for that 3rd and final name now lol harder than you'd think.

 

 

Especiall when Sally keeps coming up with stupid names like "Phallus"... seeing as we have Poach, Pennyapple, and Pecan, she was thinking along the "P" Lines.... Sesame street missed out on her didn't they This is truely excrutiating

[cluckingmad]

hows about one of these..

 

Poppy

Peanut

Penny

Pickle

Prescilla

Pringle

 

?!

[docsquid]

Pippin or Pippa?

[House MD 221B]

Well I've convinced Sal that perhaps we shouldn't stick to just P's, as for example, Miss Pennyapple ACTUALLY begins with an M, and plus out of equality, I should perhaps choose a name, hehe, and I have gone for Angua, which is named after a Terry Pratchett Discworld character, Delphine Angua von Uberwald, who is a blonde Werewolf dating Captain Carrot. And we will probably end up with 2 light sandy coloured chickens and a white one Introductions are going to be fun.

but anyway check out the list in the OP, there's some STRANGE names for chickens, and some.... perhaps a little racist

Have you seen Omlet's own list?

Liking Angua Esme our pepperpot is named after Granny Weatherwax (who's full name is Esmerelda )

awesome! always nice to meet another Pratchett fan! didn't realise until I did some hunting around this afternoon, there aren't that many female characters outside of the witches, cheery littlebottom the dwarf, and Sally the vampire. Bit of a sausage fest the old discworld still I believe Great A-Tuin's still undecided and up for grabs.

I had 2 of my girls' my names years before I got the girls - shows how long I took to take the plunge

 

Rita was always going to be my ginger one. Short for Henrietta.

Joy is short for (h)enjoy.

The DH named Grace...........for what we are about to receive.

 

My next two will be Cissie and Ada - after the Les Dawson & Roy Barraclough characters. I think it will suit a pair of clucking chooks down to the ground.

[cluckingmad]

*fit of the giggles has now hit*

 

marvellous names! And house, you're right - there really aren't that many females in discworld apart from the witchs Although there is one that could be an excellent chook name - Sybil, after sam Vimes lady Sybil ramkin

[Rhapsody]

There are loads in Monstruous Regiment.. (pratchett geek slinks away)

[cluckingmad]

Rhapsody, get back here!! Nothing wrong with being a Pratchett geek - I got very excisted on the train out of Birmingham last week because I saw not one but TWO adverts of new Pratchett books.... OH was slightly disturbed....

[House MD 221B]

yes my OH mentioned Monstrous Regiment hehe

 

I just finished Nation which is thoroughly enjoyable, and my OH's sister is going to lend us unseen academicals. I'm not a huge football fan (understatement of the year, I despise the sport), so im intrigued to see if he can make it interesting to me.

[Little Clucker]

I think you should like it, I don't get footie (I'm a rugby girl) but as usual he makes not about football, but rather the soul of what it is if that makes sense?

[cluckingmad]

that does it - ordering books online as we speak!!

 

I'm an academic, so always find the exploits of unseen university staff rather entertaining
