Quail Sweeties Hatch Along!

[scyllarus]

So, I candled eggs a day or two ago and 36 out of 50 were developing!

Claim an egg number and choose a name for the chick! I might be at work when these hatch, so no guarantees I'll accurately name the chicks, but I *will* be using all names from eggs that hatch.

Please name these babies based on sweets! My covey all have sweets-themed names c: I'll list them - please do NOT pick one of these names: Pudding, Mousse, Flan, Tiramisu, Dixie (the sugar brand), Debbie (snack cakes), Tiramisu, Vanilla Bean, Sugar, Butterscotch, Blondie, Brownie, Cinnamon, Choco, Cookie, Tidbit.

I actually had to look up what Blondie was, as I'm not a sweets eater.

But thought Blondie, the '70-80s rock band...

And then thought, Dagwood and Blondie..

Which then brought me to the famous 'Dagwood sandwich'...

And now I'm hungry...

Come pick an egg!

#5 name gumdrop

#22 - Hedgehog

We eat those here!

What’s hedgehog slice?​

Hedgehog slice is one of Australia’s most popular sweet treats. It’s very similar to chocolate fridge cake or Tiffin in the UK.

I know what you’re thinking. I’m not sure I’m interested in a sweet treat named after an animal – a prickly one at that.

In fact it’s more than a little baffling why this is called a hedge hog slice at all, since hedgehogs aren’t even found in Australia. Maybe the inside very slightly resembles the bristles of a hedgehog? Or maybe not. But you have to admit it’s a cute name for a yummy sweet treat!

How to make it!

Thanks for the tag!

I would like to root for #18. May I name it Tiramisu?
That's one of my favorite desserts!

 

[GirlsHuntToo]

I will root for #10 if available! How about Sugar for a name?

Oh my gosh that is so funny because one of my chickens is named little debbie after the desserts brand too

Is there an updated list of names? This was started months ago... I'm probably too late. Howabout "Mitzie" for #27

Oh, I hope not. Quail eggs hatch in 16-18 days, so you're just in time. It's day 13 today and we will be locking down tomorrow!

I like the name, but I'm a bit confused - my covey are all named after sweets, so that's the naming theme for this hatch! Is Mitzie like...a sweet brand or something?
