Mary, please keep us posted with your Spring experiences. Hatch rate is of particular interest as are any comments you have of "standard" traits and deviations thereto.
Rejean (my source) mentioned the greying, although he used silvering, hue. A few of my cockerels had a yellowish tone around the neck but at times it appears to have diminished (disappeared?) as they mature. I also have one (the largest) that my sister feels has a neck that is too long; I wonder if that might balance out as he fills out.
Best of luck!
