Some Tips for Coming up With Even More Cute Chicken Names

If you couldn’t find the perfect name for your cute chicks in this extensive list, here are some tips to come up with even more ideas:

• Consider their looks: what colors and patterns do you see at their dawn? What do they look like? Are they fluffy? Do they remind you of an Oreo?
• Personality: even baby chicks already show personality. Is it the Bold one in the flock? Is it a Rebel? Is it the escape artist Houdini? Or is the chick as timid as Bambi?
• Pop Culture: you can draw inspiration from your favorite movies, TV shows, artists, or books. A yellow chick could be Pikachu, and the one with the brownish dawn could be Chewbacca. What about Elsa for that cute white Silkie?
• Puns: many people like to get punny with their chicken names. Have you seen Eggbert and Hen Solo? What about Lindsey Lohen and Yolko Ono?

Did we mention that choosing the perfect name for your backyard flock together with the kids or the whole family is an ideal activity?
