looks tottally naked!!!!.....pics added

[Grog]

OK so I crossbred what we think to be an Americauna Roo and a Turken Hen(among other crosses). One of my new chicks looks tottally naked. It is still wet. Do turken babies look naked at hatch? Or do I have a malformed baby? It cant help that this guy has light yellow feathers where he does have them. Just let me know.

I hope you will give him a chance to get feathers, maybe he is slower to get them. From the cross you did I doubt he will stay hairless unless the roo carries a turken gene. Maybe someone who raises them can give you more information.

Yes, they do! Go take a gander at the NN thread. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=301500 They're really the cutest chicks. Wait til your little one fluffs up!!

the roo don't have the gene, if he did his neck would be naked.

you can not carry the NN gene if you have a full feathered neck.
