[Hilary B]

LOL! Ah but I do like my english ladies sleuths

Well you were talking about Buff Orpintons which I believe are a British breed, so I thought if you ever got some of an American breed........

[lynda66]

I note 19 names & you're only up to the letter "P"!!...So how many are you planning on getting???

she's only just started yet ..... so my guess is 36 ...... but thats before she starts on ducks

[NSB]

i have Rusty, Grumpy (Jade), snowy and freckles. Before we got them they were going to be called Big, Dolly, Lemon and Henrietta.

we tend to call them the girls unless they need to be individually identified.

We have Dolly (Welsummer - big breasted) Audrey (Hepburn) Poppy, Lavender, Daffodil, Daisy, Orchid & little Ginger - our dearly departed were: Elizabeth (Taylor) Margo (Ledbetter) & Barbara (Good) HennyPenny (not named by us!) and Pheonix

[Bephlam]

Ours are Euphemia, Gwendolyn & Henrietta.

[Hashette]

Ginger (the boss), Attila the Hen (bad attitude when she arrived. Lovely now, so shortened to Tilly), Clarissa Chickenson-Wright and Lady Tottington (Totty)

[Twinkle]

our first 3 hens were Dolly, Jean and Twinkle... (yeah, I'm a big Victoria Wood fan)

when we got our new girls, we decided not to name them as hens have a pretty short lifespan out here what with the abundance of predators, however they've become
Stripes
Stripes Junior (R.I.P)
Stripes Mini
Brownie
Tiny
Little Tiny

[Luci]

Ours were called Emerald, Matilda, Hetty & Pecker.
All named when we were kids!

[shirlthegirl43]

Madmax and the boys named ours - Madmax has Flymo, Aranthos has Zeke and younger son's is named 'Cardinal Puff Puff the Third' (Puff for short). Since I didn't get to name an individual, I collectively refer to the 'henny penny's'

Ours are:
Lola (Plymouth Rock)
Splash (Blue Splash Orpington)
Esmie (short for Esmerelda - Black Orpington)
Ginger (Buff Sussex)
