Naked Neck/Turken Thread

[Kassaundra]

Here are a couple of pics of Vader, he has "lightened" as much as he ever will I am pleased w/ how dark his fm stayed.

Now some shots of the youngsters



Here is Beautimer, w/ is one solitary neck feather



And Beautimous w/ her lovely clean neck, not a feather or a fuzz from hatch






This one is almost surely going to be mottled, but sadly is not even Nn



This one is mottled and blue I believe (if blue is grey) a top knot but is fully feathered AND a boy

And last but not least Blondie.

They are all so nice even if not all naked necked. The next to lady picture, is that mottling or barring? I know you said mottling but it sort if looks like barring also. Anyway I line that look.

And now some of the babies




Hard to see in these shots, but this little one has some amazing sideburns.













This is the smallest one, and has the pea comb feather pattern














I believe this one is going to be mottled






This one got in the water container as I was trying to get it for the pics










This is the only naked I have left from this hatch, such a Drama Queen.

This pattern I've seen in other of my juvies, and in the juvie it looks like barring/ mottling, but in adults has shown mottled.

I like her type... seems to have very strong carrier signs?

She seems to be fibro.

Love her, very dinosaurian face!

This one is reddish colored. Sure was a Brown Red and mom was a non-NN Blue Salmon EE/NN. So therefore I'm not sure if it is really acted color, but to my eye it's red. @Kev, can red happen from this breeding?

This is supposed to be a pullet! I don't know. It was from a Red Mottled NN rooster out of a Silver NN. It is looking an awful lot like a cockerel though.

And

Both if these pullets are by my Cinnamon NN Rooster and our of a Red (Aloha) NN hen. They didn't inherit the mottling genes though. Kept them to breed back to the Aloha lines.

Yeah sure can happen. Looks more buff to me though?

If it turns out cockerel, then the silver NN was not the mother. I'll say this one does look either cockerelish or pulletish in different ways..

MAY be seeing mottle sign in one cockerel from last batch. A barred boy with white wing feathers.. it's only 1-1/2 weeks old though. Hoping it either mottles up or shows clearer signs of being a mottled carrier so I would know it's not totally gone from the gene pool..

There were only two hens in that run :

This Mottled Partridge and

The silver one behind the tree. The rooster in this picture was not the male.

This is the rooster I ran with the above two hens:

The Red Mottled rooster with the Mottled Partridge I've gotten all Mottled Partridges and this one this time:

So I guess maybe she could have produced something else, just haven't seen anything else. The rooster in the picture with the Silver hen though was bred once to the Mottled Partridge and I got some red pullets from that breeding.

She's showing off that one lone feather.
