Snoxy Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Good morning I would like to introduce Minnie (named by Ellin...she is 'into' Minnie Mouse at the moment!) and Olive (named by DH...keeping with the 'old-fashioned ladies names!)...they are Goldlines. They are gorgeous girls and so friendly...just like everyone said they would be Minnie Olive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gelbel Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 we also have a ruth, which I think is a fab chicken name! My brother has a Ruth, and a Pam and a Mary - which happens to be our Mum's name and that of her 2 sisters. And by some miracle of Mother Nature each chook is rather similar in looks and charateristics to their human namesake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooker Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Theres some fab name ideas in this thread!! I did want helen, but I have a friend called helen and dont think she would appreciate it! I should note, our chicken names have two very distinct themes...my boyfriend named nugget, soup, hot rod and 'the colonel'...all girls! neighbours think Im mad.....'hot rod come here!!!'...I tried to veto but failed! hot rod doesnt seem to mind! rachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
