After much pleading my wife got a chicken coop for her 30th birthday. We picked up 2 chickens yesterday and they are settling in well. Isa Browns - orangey browney colour with white markings.

Friends of ours have 2 chooks "Princess Layer" and "Cluck Norris".

So we reckon they have set the bar pretty high for names. We're struggling to think of any good ones.

Anyone?

hmmm can't really help. None of my chickens have names; except for the rooster, he is called "Laksa"

I can, however, help with ideas for laying boxes.
My hens have other boxes available but only use these two...


Before I added the microve, things got a little crowded (4 in here)...

Yeh I suggested "Tikka" and "Nugget", they didn't go down too well.

That tv was pretty popular

We have 2 chickens with quite boring names apparently.

Lilly - Black chicken
Goldie - Which is a red chicken

These were bought so we could have a constant supply of eggs, but they have become more pets than anything. Better trained than a bloody dog. They come to my wife when called by name. Heaven help me if i joke about cooking one up for dinner. I get the angry eyes and silent treatment from both my wife and daughter.

Maybe you could call one Chicken little

Mums chooks were called Mrs Brown, Mrs White, and Mrs Black (6 of each of them)

I tended to refer to them generically as "foxbait" as they proved to be a bit disposable.
