Naked Necks with feathered necks?

[lisa73me]

I have 4 buff NN chicks that have feathered necks. What breed do I call them?

 

[Northwest_Wannabe]

What were their parents? what breed naked necks?

Well.
Not naked necks. If you bought eggs from someone, you were duped.

Definitely not nacked necks, someone fooled you if you bought the eggs

I think when breeding NNs if you breed two parents with "bowties" half the chicks will have bowties and half won't have bare necks. That might be what happened. I think to be full Naked Neck, bowties aren't preferred, but perhaps the breeder didn't understand! No expert on this, but I'm giving benefit of the doubt

Not naked necks. I also believe the naked neck is dominant so the offspring should be naked necked too. Wait till their older and we can tell breed.

I *think* when you breed Naked Necks it goes as such:
Naked Neck (homozygous) x standard feathered-neck chicken = 100% heterozygous Naked Necks (bowties)

Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous) x Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous) = 25% standard feathered neck, 25% Naked Neck (homozygous), 50% Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous)

Naked Neck (homozygous) x Naked Neck (homozygous) = 100% Naked Neck (homozygous)

Naked Neck (homozygous) x Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous) = 50% Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous), 50% Naked Neck (homozygous)

Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous) x standard necked chicken = 50% Naked Neck w/bowties (heterozygous), 50% standard necked

Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong (I just did a few mental punnett squares), but I believe there are many possible ways of turning out non-naked chicks from naked parents

I don’t know

Yes, I bought eggs. But I spoke to the gentleman and he said that he gets usually one out of 100 that aren’t naked Necks. He doesn’t know if the weather has something to do with it or not. But he’s going to make it right. So, I can’t complain! Very stand up gentlemen!

Weather has nothing to do with genetics. Glad he's going to make it right though!
