Leghorn #1

We are now the proud owners of 4 chicks which in 3 months will be egg-laying hens. They are pets, never to be eaten, and they will not be bred either.

We’d like your help with names. We’ve had a lot of birds and other pets over the years, all of whom have had names (and still do), but we’re looking for some fresh-new-interesting-creative suggestions. There are four females who needGolden #1

names. I was told two of them are leghorn hens (but none of them look like a “Foghorn”), who will lay

white eggs, and I forget the breed of the other two, but they are expected to lay brown eggs. Pictures will be forthcoming as soon as I can get them.

Golden #2

I’m going to attempt a poll here, but I’m not sure how that will work out. Please feel free to comment, ask questions, give kudos to someone else’s suggestion(s), and put out as many ideas as you want. I’ve had them for about 10 days, and it looks like they’re all doing well and will grow to be good layers in a few months.

Leghorn #2

Thank you for your help!!
