Naming of the Chicken Divas


A name is so important. You are are naming a person or a creature something that they will be known for the rest of their lives. It is something that should be taken very seriously. When we named our dog Neta Tohbi, it was because sis wanted a white bear. Since that is illegal - we did the next best thing and bought her a very large white dog. Her name means "white bear" in Choctaw and it is almost perfect. If we had used snoring somewhere in her name it would have been correct! Unfortunately for the chickens, we were having too much fun and only one was named properly.... Meg (thanks sis)

The others, unfortunately, will have to go through life with names that made us giggle. After sister named "Meg", Caleb had to name one. How he came up with "Voltron" will forever be a mystery to everyone involved. No matter though, it isn't as bad as when Mark and I put our heads together to name the last three, four... well, we had an issue. They will forever go by "Sunday Dinner"(Meg turned out to be a chicken dude), "Margo", "Mango" and "Rita"... I know, I know... this is so we can step outside and call for Mango-Rita or Margo-Rita. Corny huh?! I blame it on Mark being a parrothead - lol.

I can hear my mother breathing a sigh of relief, grateful we haven't had to name any children lately.
