            Some have names... some don't!

            Roosters: Rene (Maran), Wally (white Scots Dumpy), Di (short for Hen-Diawl, Anglo-Welsh for devil hen... ) and a little boy Minorca called Pablo
            Hens: Jody and Jordan (Silver Grey Dorkings), Penny (a Barred Plymouth Rock, named after Pennsylvania where the pilgrims landed), Aggy and Frida (Scots Dumpies), Honey (bantam partridge Wyandotte) and I don't have names for my Minorca hens yet...

              I'm thinking up a few- sort of traditional names like Flo, Dolly and Mabel etc- probably because I've spent too long reading Census details of old!!!

              I should try for some tongue-twisters for the French really!
              Our cat's called Hewi.....you should hear them trying to say that one!!!

                Lavender Araucanan is called Gertrude, barred plymouth hybrid called Edma (although if she keeps beating up the banties she may not last much longer), a buff orpie hybrid called Mabel, a black D'Uccle called Florence and a mottled barbu D'Anver called Petunia. Florence is my fave because she loves cuddles!

                          If you need some American names you might like to consider

                          Kay (Scarpetta) or Kinsey (Millhone)...... Possibly Amelia (Sachs, Lincoln Rhyme's assistant)
                          Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.
