Loved them their my favorite breed. They were the first breed I started with back when I only had 4 chickens. They were great laying large brown eggs NEVER stopped laying even all winter. Also had great personaity. everyone of them was different. Will love to get some more.
I absolutely love this breed of chicken. At one point I had several of them, some of which we cross bred. We had very colorful turkens. Turken-cochins; Turken-bantams, Silkie Turkens....the list goes on. they are great layers. I am in the market to buy 2 hens now. I don't know why but i find their unique(weird) look, attractive. I love them!
I have raised these in the past and they are pretty nice birds. I just can't get past how ugly they are.
These birds should be raised by those people who go to the pound and adopt the ugly puppy with mange and three legs.
LOL...they attract a LOT of attention from visitors. Before they visit I can tell you what everyone will ask..."What the hell is that thing?"
I would love to add one of these to my flock once I have more room :)
Breed Details: Also called Turken for the breed's lack of feathers on the neck resembling a turkey and the Transylvania Naked Neck, I would recommend this breed to anyone as they are calm. I, personally, have 3 hens and they are all friendly, nice birds. |
