In Honor of a New Season of Dr. Who

In honor of a new season of Doctor Who on BBC America, I decided to show you the companions of The Doctor after which our hens have been named.  (See "Meet Our Girls" to compare names with birds and breeds.)

Rosie, our second Cherry Egger, named afterRose Tyler. Our first, Rose, was a Buff Orpington,a blond.

Donna, our Australorp, named after Donna Noble

Martha, our Bard Rock, is named after Martha Jones

Amelia, our first Cherry Egger, is name after the red-headed, Amelia Pond (a true ginger)

Rory, the name change of our Buff Orpington pullet
when we discovered 'she' was a 'he,' named after Rory Williams.

Clara, our recent rescue, a Cinnamon Queen, is named after the
most recent Doctor Who companion.
