Hmmmph. Harley found a worm in my flower tub....so he has called his favourite girls, and is standing guard while they are standing in my flower tub, scritching around for all they are worth.
The new Petunias are beyond saving, but the entertainment from watching their delight is far greater than watching the flowers grow. I think Harleys top hen, the skinny, bald backed  rescue girlie has now got a name...how does Petunia sound?
(All of my chooks grow their own names..I dont just randomly give them any old name when I get them....there is a story behind all their names, though a couple still dont have names as such.

  I love these chook stories. Can't wait to get our own.

Petunia sounds grand ...mine kinda 'grow' their own names too. My little baby welsummers colours on her neck have started to come through .It looked like an amber necklace shining in the sun thismorning, so she has her new name today also...do you like Amber?

I think Petunia and Amber are grand names, very elegant.

I had picked some really nice names from my myths and legends book to give my new young Crested Cream Legbars last year then one day I looked out and said that one looks like a peewit and the name has stuck :blink: the other one got stuck with the name tufty

I agree its the ones that show a bit of character that get their names first or the odd balls .we hatched what was supposed to be a light sussex egg and out came what looks like a brahma ???any ideas for a name, i need something unisex  until we know for sure.suggestions on a post card
