Let Your Chicken Help Decide
We know that there are plenty of cute and funny chicken names to choose from, but if you have not decided yet, then ask your chicken for help.
Yes, you heard it correctly!
But don’t ask your chicken literally, she may not tell you anything. What we mean is, consider the color, temperament or personality, outer appearance, behavior and even her hairstyle to help you pick a name.
For example, if your rooster is black and white you can call him Oreo.
As you already know; there is a lot that you do need to think about if you are raising backyard chickens. Choosing the right name is probably one of the easiest tasks. But at the end, the pros of raising chickens really outweigh the cons.
My Final Thoughts
Chickens have been used as pets by humans for thousands of years; we still love them today and it’s no wonder why: they turn your kitchen scraps into nutrient-rich eggs and make great compost (for your garden). They even help control pests that eat our vegetables or spread illnesses to other livestock like horses or cows.
Your pet chicken is going to live for about 10 years. That means you will have 10 full seasons in which you can enjoy your feathered friend. Don’t rush into picking a chicken name before you are ready! Pet chickens are not one of the easiest animals to take care of, but once they bond with their owners, they can become affectionate pets.
