I absolutely adore naked necks! Planning on starting a naked neck only flock. :love
That ought not be too difficult. It is my understanding that the genetic mutation has a high likelihood of being passed along to their offspring, which for me equates to breeding the heartiness of Turkens back into the bloodlines from the store-bought chicks (production reds, americauna (type), and leghorn (type) (cornish cross does not breed into cornish cross, they tend to revert back to a leghorn (type) bird) that I'd purchased in the past. Those that have managed to live to adulthood, that is. It is a slow process to undo countless generations of mismanagement by Panama's version of Big-AG, but I'm working with what I have at my disposal. I'm happy to give up a few neck feathers to gain the health benefits for the rest of my flock's offspring.
 
Probably. English Orps are the best orps, not sure what hatcheries are like where you are, but seeing as English Orps are from England (lol obviously) probably makes yours 1000x better.

I mean just look at this glorious beast.

Isn't that a Cochin, though, in all but name?
