Thank goodness you didn't ask me about Joe's bird! LOL

Ok the one without the bow tie has a double NN gene which is written NANA. And the bow tie birds just have a single NN gene which is written NAna. A feather necked bird's genes are written nana for no dominate genes.

A dominant gene is written with capitol letters and a recessive gene has small case letters.

and my bird is a NANANA or dobel domanit (scalless geen)

Really Joe I suspect that both birds that you bred were Homozygous which let this happen.

To all that don't know a Homozygous NN will have only NNs as offspring no matter what they are bred to. A Hetrozygous bird will have a split of about 50/50 NN and feather necked.

In the old days before DNA testing (which showed that we were wrong) we used to think that a NN without a bow tie was Homozygous and with a bow tie was Hetrozygous.

Joe it looks like yours doesn't have a folicle anywhere, couldn't grow feathers if it tried to. I would be sending pics to those yahoos trying to breed them. Scientists with grants have lots of cash.

Lol Joe I think little sisters face says it all about that bird!lol that's cute and funny!(her not the chicken! Lol) from the size of it's feet and legs it's going to be big!

PoCo that's neat to hear about the cougar, I have seen several over in the eastern side of the state!also black panthers although the way I understand it they are the same breed.
