Shortlist of names for chicks

Here they are – the short list of names for the chicks. It was hard for us to narrow down the names. We had so many names on a potential short list and eventually had to be ruthless and cut, cut, cut.

Eventually, we chose names that are short 'n sweet, with a mix of African-sounding names and more traditional names.

In no particular order of preference, the names are:

Chick 1
Kizzi
Zambi
Kani
Merlin
Sheba

Chick 2
Timka
Mika
Taz
Orion
Manny (Miss Manners - patient)

    Do any of the names have translations/meaning?

    And can you tell us anything about the camera problem? I miss seeing them, and I imagine that getting repairs on a weekend is probably as problematic there as it is here...
