Building A Churkey(Turkey Imposter)

Gonna have a long term high cull project starting next spring. One reason for this project to be on hold for now.

Have you crossed cornish with naked neck before?

I love this thread! I wanna do something similar. But a naked neck cornish!

Thinking to make a more heat tolerant CX??

Cullings are tasty, so I've found.

Yep, I know. Love my home grown chicken.

I see. Yeah the rooster is a Madagascar naked neck gamefowl. And yes I have asil and ganoi as well.

I've heard of the Madagascar Gamefowl. They're definitely interesting birds.

No, but I'm sure the results will be interesting.

I'm probably gonna get a few Cornish, & Naked Necks next year, so I'd have them ahead of time.

This sounds interesting. I don't mind turkey, but I think chicken is a bit better. I'll be watching this thread to see how it goes.

Okay, sounds good.

That and the naked neck gene is also linked to disease resistance apparently.

Are you planning to include barring? Apparently the Genetics of a Barred bird is less likely to get tumors.
