Awesom. I'm thinking if adding another rooster to the group next year when I bolster numbers so I'll do the cuckoo male and the others will be female. Then I only have to worry about one male as opposed to 3. Thanks for dealing with these questions. I see such pretty naked necks on here, but i...

Awesome, thanks. Do you know if any of those patterns would work with my male too to bring them in too? I don't know what color he has, but i know it would also probably be happier for most of them to use hens instead and not break the group up as much as possible Also cuckoo and barred would...

Okay, thank you. The barred pair then would make all barred, ideally, correct since it's the opposite of a sexlink pair?

Okay. And would it matter who I paired the partridge gal with? Or would she be fine with any of those three patterns?

Okay, so if I were to say get 3 males, (barred, laced and double laced) and bred them each to a female, I could keep a female chick from each cross and cross them back to their dads to establish the pattern?

Yeah, but how would I get the barred and regular lacing without out crossing? The barred/cuckoo, whatever people call it, is what I'm mainly interested in. I have no clue what a 'K' is, and I didn't know you need two pattern genes to express. How do sexlink work then? I don't know the genetics...

I want to introduce barred and laced (preferably double laced) patterns to my Naked neck group. I have no idea the genetics behind their colors as the 4 are hatchery stock. I had planned to get a cuckoo marans and a barnevelder (maybe a laced Wyandotte too) to the flock and only keep any chicks...
