Here's a pic of my grandson holding sylvia...I believe she's an americana.
Do you name your chickens?
Yes, everyone has a name.
Great pic, a very nice looking young American Patriot, holding a beautiful Americauna bird. It doesn't get any better...Hay...and yes most of us do name most of our birds...me! I'm not so good at names...
Not all of mine have names,just my favorites.
This is Dart a white crested black polish,she he is three weeks old
What a character!
I used to but it hurts to bad when they die so I stopped and try not to get to attached to them anymore
Hay, it actually does get better than this, his Daddy just came home today from Afghanistan. :)
I've named a few of mine that I can tell apart. Simple stuff like Mamma and Pappa for my Faverolles (even though they are still not of egg laying/mating age). One of my big wyandottes is called Turkey because my son says his head looks like a turkey. Then there is Big Red (kinda obvious the reason for his name)...and then there is Meanie our male easter egger who likes to beat-up all the other chickens. I'll think of other names for some of them once I can tell them apart better.
Opps, here's the picture.
Awwww how sweet!! That IS better! Give him a hug for me and a big giant Thank you!!!
I stand corrected. WOW!!! What a wonderful, picture. Make sure you tell your son, we thank him for his service. We also salute you for loaning your son to this Country...God Bless all of you...Hay
IowaAnn, that's the BEST news. Please Thank him, and your family, as Hay said.
I am like Donna, I don't name them anymore :(. The named ones always seem to be targets. Some are still with me from earlier days, and they have "official" names. The others, like titanium's, go more by descriptions. Some as groups (the Turkentines, Bobby'sBrother'schickens) but I try to avoid actually naming them. I admit that some have names that are never spoken, but they're named in my head. Don't know if that will help...
It's great having our son back home safe and sound. Sleepless nights with worry are replaced with joyful nights of blissful sleep. I'll give him your thanks and blessings!
Ann I am so happy for you that your son is home safe and sound
ME TO !
I dont know how I missed this thread!
Yes!!! Do let your son know how much He and his fellow troops are loved and appreciated! Give him my Thanks and continuing prayers !
Of course we do...... I name all my children, dont you? (LOL!)
