If you are one of the many backyard chicken farmers that keep chickens for eggs AND as pets, you no doubt have felt the urge to think up some chicken names. We thought we would help out a little bit and give you some ideas to choose from.
Our first chickens were a trio of Polish hens. We were super excited and promptly names them Luna, Moonpie, Alfred Einstein (yes, Alfred, not Albert).
You can really name your chickens anything you want. Picking out names can be a lot of fun. We will often pick a theme when naming a new group of chickens.
For example, we love movies, comics, music, pretty much anything pop culture related. So when we get a new handful of chickens we will pick one of those themes and name them all after Avengers or something like that.
Try it out yourself when you name your flock!
