coco Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I tend to name chickens bought together with names beginning with the same letter. My latest additions are two Nankins called Ellie and Evie. I also have Saffron and Scarlet, Fizz and Freya and Lola and Lulu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I tend to name chickens bought together with names beginning with the same letter. My latest additions are two Nankins called Ellie and Evie. I also have Saffron and Scarlet, Fizz and Freya and Lola and Lulu. My ex batts were all A's Annie, Agnes, Agatha. My next lot of ex batts will be B's. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarrisonFamily Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 My chickens are called .... Hilda, Dolores and Hermione but my new ex barn ladies will be called... Galadriel, Elrond and still working out no 3....maybe Gandalf (we have no plans to get a cockeral so sometimes the girls have to put up with a boys name ) I childmind and I love listening to the 2 and 3 year olds calling out unusual names.... I have just got the cube together and have a date to pick up the new girls so I must think of another name soon How about Summer & Autumn as names......or Splash and Splish or really confuse people and call them cat & dog !!!!

paulad Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 my 3 exbats are Dora Dotty and Daisy and my 2 originals are Gwen the hen and Matilda xx I love thinking of names - let us know what you decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beantree Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 We tended to go for flowers or female duo's, like Hyacinth and Margo. Or names that seem to fit together, like Prudence, Prescilla, Primrose and Portia. We started naming Annie, Bonnie, Charlie etc but stopped at Florence.

counturchickens Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 We started with daisy, maisie and Dora, followed by female characters from the west wing. Now we're onto letters of the alphabet, next girls might be dotty and deidrie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 All my chickens have names beginning with 'D' because OH said it was like the D day landings when I got my first lot, but I just love the names 'Muffin and Biscuit ' So sweet and warm sounding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
