The Name Game

Post by chickabiddy »

I took Ursula to the vets today and the vet said he had never heard of a chicken called Ursula and suggested I call her paxo (the cheek of it ) Anyway, my husband thinks i am a complete Loony because they have all got names , which are : Babs, Mavis, Lucy, Ursula, Polly, Madelaine, Honey, Lilly, Fifi, Frank, Mick, Matilda, Maisie and Maggie.
Obviously I know i am among Chickenoholics {hug} and wondered what you had all called your girls and boys (chickens) Ca x )w(
