sjp Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 very cute are they proper hybrid naked necks or crosses? I only ask as I've not seen hatching eggs for hybrid naked necks offered anywere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan08 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Great video! See I think I would be a wreck if I ever hatched any. They go pecking about then drop off to sleep like they have been shot. I would have to keep poking them to check they were still OK Loved watching them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheryl Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Hey sjp, They are hybrids in that they are Naked Necked crossed with various others, there are also some pure Nakeds because I have two NN Cockerals in two pens one has pure NN females plus a few Polands, and the other is a true mixed bag, which is all the more exciting because I have hatched some Lavender Peking/Naked Necks which are so lovely.. I am having lots of fun with these as you never know what will pop out, but I get lots of people wanting them off me.. so thats good aswell.

Cheryl Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Yeah I have the same sort of thing as you do, a lovely mix of everything and they are lovely all of them.. These are about 10 weeks old and the black one has already started trying to crow.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
