Chickee Lickee Chooks

Baby Buff Orpington - Hillary - named after Sir Edmond Hillary because (s)he likes to be the one on top of the rock in the water dish.  I wasn't able to get a decent shot of the bigger Buff Orp.


If one of the Columbian Rock chicks is a male, his name will be Flinker Ban. "Flink" means strong in Dutch and Ban is white in Gaelic.  There are two Columbian Rock, but the other was camera shy.

Chantecler - Berwyn - means "fair haired". Laur also lived on Berwyn Ave in Chicago.

 Attila the Hen - Golden Laced Wyandotte/Black Australorp cross
(S)he's the biggest of all the chicks.


 Unnamed Golden Laced Wyandotte/Black Australorop cross.

 Unnamed GLW/BA cross.

Silver Laced Wyandotte - Maud - just because I like that name. Did you know it's the diminutive of Matilda? Apparently I didn't get a good shot of the other SLW.
