Poor babies are HOT ! HOT with their mouths open, I can tell they are all panting. Sure are pretty thought.
 
Can you keep frizzles with non frizzles or will the others pluck them? My EE's muffs get plucked off by the non EE's.
 
when you are going back to nicaragua,in costa rica the popular breed of chicken is turken, i remember when i used to visit my ants they used to have many turken and many color, and one of my ants gave me a red turken that one is was my 1 turken i ve ever had and i named gaudy

Yes... it's been a really hot hot hot summer here in Central Texas. But not to worry... I take really wonderful care of my girls and they have plenty of shade in there yard and a pool of fresh water that they like to go stand in to help them stay cool. We are all looking forward to cooler weather - hurry up Fall weather!

I have a Mille Fleur Turken I got from a hatchery, I am guessing from someones project. She has a big feathery bow tie (unlike my other turken hens who just seem to have a few stubbles). She also doesn't have the red head the others do. I would like to 'make' more of these. My thought is to use some Mille Fleur Leghorns -since I think they are the closest breed to the Naked Necks in body type-any ideas?
