I was inducted into the chicken yard almost two years ago. Who knew chickens could be so much fun? My rooster that wasn’t… first his name was Donald Trumpet but then “he” was discovered to be a hen so her name is Melania, as she has a beautiful golden necklace around her neck (Rose Comb Brown Leghorn)
I also have Lovely Lollipop (Blue Andalusian), Tootsie (Black Australorp), Peepers (the noisiest chick EVER), Chickadee, (Silver Laced cochin), Petunia, (Whiting True Green that lays green eggs every day!) Paprika (Speckled Sussex) Buttercup (Buff Orpington), Lemon Drop (Lemon Cuckoo Neiderrheiner), Mr Bubbles my mystery bonus chick (looks like Barred Rock).
Then we happened upon some Japanese silkies at the flea market last summer! OOPS! We came home w/a new rooster, Napoleon, and little white Fluffer Nutter and orange fluffy thing we call Butterscotch! Lovely family all in all!
I’m back on this site to find names for my next order of day old chicks – Chicken Math, you know!! :)
Diamond and pearl under Pairs or Pinkie and the Brain.
We have a rooster named Axle Crows (for Axle Rose)
Chickpea
