Do any of you know if these are dominant or recessive traits in chickens?

Frizzle D or R?

Silkie furlike feathering D or R? I have one silkie rooster with a bunch of cochins, and was wondering if I could get some with the furry look?

Naked neck D or R? I have one turken with some cochins, and was curious if he could make more naked necks?

Most of my hens are cochins or brahamas. I just have each rooster in with several different hens.

Frizzle is incompletely dominant....meaning that the heterozygote shows an intermediate form.

Hookless (as in silkies) is recessive.

Naked Neck; incompletely dominant
 
Silkie feathering is recessive I believe.... cross the offspring from that cross back to the silkie and you will get silkie-feathered chicks.
 
Thank you all. I appreciate
