Rose

Blossom

Daisy

Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum, John and Kymberley, and congratulations on the new cube and soon-to-arrive girlies .

 

You could have a look through this list of names for inspiration - there are bound to be a few flowery ones .

[Sheilaz]

Hello, and welcome to the forum, we share your excitement!

The flower theme for names is a good idea. Maybe Petal, and Posy, to go with Blossom? I have a Bluebell & Lavender, maybe Rosemary to go with that?

Lily, Honesty, Primrose, Pansy, Violet......

 

Do let us know how you get along and meanwhile, have fun choosing, and browsing the forum.

[Alis girls]

Dandelion, red campian, bluebell, hyacinth, snowdrop, daffodil, celandine, buttercup - depends on colour of your girls. Flowery names are lovely. I picked bibical for my 3 . Good luck

[rachael_farnsworth]

Hi there, some fantastic suggestions already so just wanted to say Hello and welcome to the forum. It is so exciting getting your new girls, you are going to be absorbed by their antics so make sure you get all your housework done before you get them cos you wont get much done after they arrive!

I have a Blossom, Daisy and a Sweetpea too, I do like flower names

Dont forget we here if you have any worries or questions

[Jillus]

I am getting three new girls this week. Topically they are going to be Gordon, David and Nick the Younger. Yes, I know they are boys names but the girls won't be any the wiser.

[mabelandflosmum]

How about flowers which are out now, Bluebell, Primrose , Tulip, Forget Me Not etc!

[Millie-Annie]

You could always call them Gordana, Davina and Nicola

[Tutti Frutti]

Just flowers or plants too? I love Fern, Hazel, Willow... and Olive

 

Congrats on your cube and can't wait to see photos **cough cough** Sorry, a tickle in my throat

[Jillus]

Gordana, Davina and Nicola it is....many thanks!! I bet I am the only person on the forum with those names!

[CatieB]

I'm not sure anyone will appreciate our dry humour - but we used to have 3 chickens - thai, tikka and mayo. It was honestly no reflection on our intentions, they lived very happy lives and in fact my sister still has one of them that we had to rehome but has called her boots after the wacky feathers on her feet.

 

We are about to invest in a cube - I hope a correct decision so will soon be joining you picking names again and knowing us we'll have something equally wacky. I am loving this forum and getting lots of help and tips. We want to get maybe 3 or 4 birds. Does anyone know if we are better getting 3 girls and a cockeral, 3 girls only or two girls and a cockeral. Does it make any difference? My husband loves the idea of a cockeral as we live so rurally and he can sleep through anything but I'm not keen on it being under my bedroom window!

 

Thanks in advance

I have flower girls

 

It started when I got a Hybrid who I named Lily. I then rescued some Chickens which were in an awful state and wanted pretty names for them. Then I bought four more Hybrids in March and I've got 4 pure breeds arriving sometime this month.

 

I keep thinking of more flowers and want more chickens to use up the names, and today people have listed yet more flowers I had not thought about, when will it end

 

There aren't that many actual flowers in my garden but I do have a garden full of flower girls

[txswanie]

If you have a bossy one you should call her Hyacinth Bucket. I am so going to save that name for a future chicken.
