This I would LOVE to see! I wonder if you could make a living......."Hi, my name is x and I knit scarves for naked neck chickens" I can just see it!!! Talk about a niche!
Hmmm... ya never know!!! NN Neck warmers - Hey... could be a possibility!!! There are saddles for hens, why not neck warmers for NNs???
Yeah, knit 'em on circular needles and make them like tube socks, or turtlenecks!
Hate is such a harsh word. I love naked necks but silkies, leghorns and all those weird asian breeds that stand up really really straight, I am not a big fan of. As for silkies they have to be really high quality to even look remotely pretty to me.
While I can't say I hate them, I'd have to say I don't like the look of all white Leghorns with the floppy combs. It's not their fault, but they remind me too much of all the gruesome videos and movies I have seen exposing the cruelty of commercial egg production.
Silkies can be pretty ugly as well unless they are the fully feathered type. As for Turkens, they are a bit shocking but I have heard they have a very sweet disposition so that would make up for appearance in my book!

Rumpless is pretty weird looking. Chicken really seem to need a tail, otherwise they look like they might topple over forward on to their beaks.
