Fire Ant, did you change your avvy?

Yes - I call it my "Shock Collards" photo. (I had harvested a collards leaf as large as my torso.) I switched it to amuse a friend of mine on another thread - this photo never fails to make her laugh.

Wow! I thought that was a collard in your last picture but I wasn't sure. What variety are you growing? Collards are one of God's gifts. I like the Georgia variety myself.

Actually, I don't really like the Georgia variety - I prefer Vates, taste-wise. I am also growing Bulldog this year - very hardy!

Mmmmmmm.... Collards!

Yeah I like the Vates a lot too. Throw a ham hock in there and mmmm-mmmmm! I agree with ya on that.

After looking through my SOP I would say that a couple of breeds that have some similarities in type to the NN's are Chanteclers and Sussex. Some of the key features (besides the naked neck) are the very long, flat back with a fairly low tail carriage (20 degrees) and the great depth of body in the rear. To my eye they have a rather triangular shape that's pretty unique to their breed.

Latest addition to the flock. She's my only NN for now. She's by far the sweetest of all. I named her Marilyn Munster.

Congrats! Hooray!
