Naming our 4 new chickens

[Onadietcolabreak]

Aibu to not let the kids name them! Did do last time and was reasonably happy to end up with a Bubblegum and a Coconut (or Bubblenut and cocobum as I often struggled to let them out, sleepdiprived and baby brain-dead, lol) was planing on keeping all chickens with pretty little old lady names, polly, Edith ect, but now I have ordered 4 little chicks and think I lucked out last time am now faced with the possibility of having a humungasaur and a ripjaw via DS (4) and a solja boy and a eminiem (yes, prob have spelt that totally wrong, as I'm told daily, I'm really not with it!) via DD1 (11)
Now, should I tell them they already had names when I brought them or let them name them with in a theme eg, flower name, which DS will hate! Or look forward to my neighbours joy as they watch me running around the garden chasing a chicken calling 'come here Ripjaw!'

you have to let the kids name them. or at least some of them. one of ours is called yorkshire pudding (dd2) to be fair chickens have crap recall anyway so its not like you are calling them often.
(and you will be shouting come here you bloody stupid chicken, trust me)

we tend to follow a pop star theme

Cluckty Perry, Kylie Mini-yolk, Aleesha Chickson were our last additions.

Damn, thought I might have too! At least I did give in too the puppy they wanted, lol. Oh well, go back to day dreaming of sweet little chooks with sweet little names [ wink]

We have a Doonie and Boulder (courtesy of DS1), Mabel (my contrtibution) and Stingray
HTH.

you have to let the kids name them,we have a feathers and a crumble,not my first choice of names but never mind :o
