Solid Black NN Pullet:
I cannot find any other color leaking on her.
She has a very large bow tie and a curved tail feather. Looks nearly identical to her mama.
Black cockerel. He has red leakage in his wings right now. Not sure if he'll develope more or not. I've about decided I need to cull him and look for a solid black. I was keeping hoping for a solid black to breed to my blacks/blues and whites. I'm afraid the leakage will just continue down the line.
A picture of his wings and the leakage. It is black but the sunlight hitting it makes it look blue.
The above Pullet and this cockerel are full siblings.
Here's daddy:
and I thought I had a picture of mama but can't find it. She is solid black though.
Not a lot to say about these two. Have lost the black splotches of grandma and mama. A goal of mine in breeding White Naked Necks. Next goal is to improve size. Mama is real big maybe 5 and 1/2 pounds, six at the most. Goal is to have a 7 to 7 1/2 pound hen. Got yo figure out how to get some White Jersey Giants. I think that would improve size, and hopefully won't mess up the feather colors again.
Here's daddy:
He's a Columbian color with a sheen of red leakage on his back and hackle and saddle feathers. This is what folks are calling Cinnamon.
