Rona Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 You might cause her to have an identity crisis if you change her name too much!! If you really don't like the name Blinky, how about changing it a little bit to Slinky or Twinky so it sounds more or less the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not changed the name yet, i will only change the name once which should not confuse her... but if it does then............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hen Watch Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I think you need to give us a bit of a description of Blinky. Then we can get our thinking caps on. What colour or breed is she?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James H Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 I think you need to give us a bit of a description of Blinky. Then we can get our thinking caps on. What colour or breed is she?? ok here goes, shesa pekin bantam , grey, top of the pekin order, loves weetcorn (like any other chicken!) and is always never satisfied with the space shes got, there always has to be one more table to fly on and off, one more thing to climb and more space to explore (and we have a bigish garden ) ok, will that help?

craftyhunnypie Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 In my opinion there is only one name that would suit her and that's:- Dora The Explorer!!!! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
