Two of my 15 week old pullets (Easter Hatch).
Two shots are one chicken and the next two are if another chicken.

This is one I'd the only Aloha NN pullet that hatched.

This one is a NN and Gloden Voney cross I got in an egg swap with @learycow.

Next are two of my will be 8 week old Thursday, pullets. These two are the prettiest ones from that hatch, the first one has a twin.

This is he one with a twin. They hatched out looking chipmunk coloring.

Is that a mottle spot I see on this pullet? I'll have to watch and see if that is what it us or if it will molt out.

Beautiful draye.

My turken is so naked right how. Rooster "love" her and we just cliped her wings 'cause she was eating all of ours tomatoes and salads.

She is also the only hen that is laying right now.

When breeding for showgirls is it best to use a turken rooster and silkie hens or a silkie rooster and turken hens? I heard best to use a silkie rooster

Thanks. Now maybe she'll stay in the own.

I don't and have never bred Showgirls, but I don't think it really matters which way you breed them. You just have to take them back to a silk several times to get the silkee feathers on the NN Showgirl

Maybe Kev will come along and can tell you if one way is better than the other. .

I'm curious about whether to use a NN roo or hen in breedings, if it matters. I guess I'll play around and see what works best for our needs

It doesn't make change. You will get same results with naked neck rooster or hen. Thing is you will get more naked necks if you use NN hens or roosters instead of using Nn. With NN the whole offspring will have naked neck and with Nn only 50% will end up having one naked neck gene.

Very cute. I saw two that have naked necks. Is it that one is a NN not crossed with the Silkee?

I didn't have the time to make better pictures, one (light yellow) is without naked neck, but with 5 toes and feathered legs and 3 are with naked neck: the partridge one is "normal" NN (parents are on the picture below); other two (light yellow and black) are crossed with silkee (father is paint silke and mother is light brown NN).
