I got a non-bow rooster over bow hens but I belive that i should be getting 100% non bow chicks can't wait to see going on lookdown this Friday

I do sell eggs but at the moment I'm selling chicks and I got 55 chicks sold so far, just got to hatch them so the eggs that they lay would be going in the bator

Hi Don! I've got the bantam blue/blacks that have no bow-tie if those interest you:

They are NOT bred to ASOP and have feathered feet and may be melanotic.

I'm getting no-bow-tie chicks from this pen of LF NN's:

but they are NOT bred to ASOP either --- Naked Neck Frizzled Green-Eggers.

Hi! They seem to do fine in cold (for as cold as we get here in SC).

Thanks for getting back with me so quick, this thread doesn't move very fast at times..

Let's see I also have a non bow tie roo over bow tie hens and when I hatched off chicks this week all had bow ties, pretty chicks just all had bow ties.

Dipsy I had some of your fizzle bantam a couple of years ago and they just loved my wife, she cried when we had to get rid of all the chickens because of medical problems.
And now we are just doin LF, other than that we would be all over them.

Again thanks all..I will wait a little longer and see if anything else pops up

if you have bot tie NN's you will eventually get a full NN out of them, and from there you can build up

Anyone find breeding season to be hard on NNs? My bantam size NN roo is picking the heck out of the neck of my only bantam NN hen. She's got scarred skin. She screeches all the time and tries to jump out of the pen every time I open the door. The roo is in temporary confinement to give her a break as she isn't laying anything yet, despite being an October hatch. Any advice besides finding more hens for the flock?

I have a question for everyone.
That is to see how many of you would be interested in being a part of a National NN Club?
I have been in contact with the previous secretary of the National NN Club which has been idle for a year or so. He would love to see it revived and wants to be a part of it, but doesn't have time to do it himself.
I am not sure yet what all the club does. I understand that in the past there were dues paid, each member got a newsletter and they tried to have meet ups when possible.
I want to take it to the next level and do it electronically. I believe we can reach a lot more people via the internet.
My goal is to unite as many NN lovers from across the country as possible and in turn set goals as a club to help promote the Naked Neck breed.
I am not sure exactly how to make the jump yet but I will be talking to the secretary again soon and hopefully get something going.
Again, my question to the folks on this thread is, would you would be interested in being part of such an organization?
I will keep you informed as to my progress in this endeavor.
Thanks,
Monty
