Picking a rooster to breed my NN to!

Why?

If there are multiple roosters and one is removed for a longer time, sometimes the others will remove him from the hierarchy and won't let him back in

About 1/2 the chicks will come out NN if you are lucky. I had probably hatched

8 NN eggs or more recently, and only got 2 NN out of the bunch.

Hello all BYC!

I need help picking a rooster to breed my Naked Neck hen to, I think she is a buff color. What would the chicks look like if she was bred to the Ayam Cemani, Buff Orpington, or Barnyard mix? I sold one NN to a friend and was left with two (so I thought), but later that week my mom said our neighbors dogs got a chicken and that’s when I was sure it was my second NN because I never have seen her again Anyway, I was hoping to breed some more NN, I know the will be mixes, but I love their bald necks they are such cute chickens!!

Thank you for all the help!!

An FYI in case you don’t know…if you breed your NN with a fully feathered roo you won’t get many NN babies. Even breeding NN to NN you can get them. So don’t be surprised when you get fully feathered chicks.

Thank you
I didn’t know that. Hopefully I will get at least one NN chick!

Your girl looks Nn, which means she has one naked geme and one not, hence the large feather clump amd not a bare neck. This means half the chicks will be Nn like her and half will be nn like dad theoretically

Not likely half and half. In theory maybe 2 out of 8. Could be more, the law of averages and such.

My rooster to the NN chicks parents, were NN but he hatched regular. So he does have the NN some where in there. All his eggs hatched, so he had good genes, some were just regular chicks.
