I've got some updated pics from today.
This is my younger naked neck broody hen. She is on day 19, so hopefully we will start seeing some action tommorrow. She has 12 eggs after removing four out of five that I gave her from the fridge.
Here is the dad.
Then I' ve got some bad pics of...
Hi! I thought you would like to see my hen dustbathing with her chicks a few days after hatching them. As you can see, she only has one chick that hatched from her egg and it inherited Nn gene. Blue ones are australorps and black ones are either australorps or australorp crosses with barnyard...
I have the same "condition" with one more prominent brown dot!

Hi everyone, you have some pretty birds shown here!

Anyways, I wanted to show of my two naked necks.
I bought this one in 2020. She usually has...
I think it's pullet. Her comb doesn't look that huge for a roo and her body shape looks girlish as does the color. And bantams usually mature faster if I remember right.
