Hi all! I'm working on a video project (that will be on YouTube. :) ) about Naked Necks and the genetics behind them, but I need some pictures! Both of my birds are heterozygous and both have bibs and I really need some pictures of homozygous naked necks, meaning they do not have a bib. :)...
Is the egg that the red arrow is pointing to, a Silkie egg? It’s rather small, compared to the others. It would have come from one of these two chickens. I don’t know the sex of either one. I’m pretty sure naked neck is a roo because I’ve seen him crow. But then again, I’ve read on here that...
I’ve got a turken that’s almost 4 weeks old, I’m not sure if its a boy or a girl, but 4-5 days ago she started displaying issues with depth perception and was sleeping a little more. I made notice that she was babying the eye when I examined all the chicks, but I didn’t think much of it except...
I have 2. They are my babies and i hate to have to rehome them but they are waaaaay too noisy and are starting to get territorial towards my other chickens. We call them twins because they do everything together and for that reason im hoping to find them a home with a big enough flock that can...

Hello! How hard is it to tell female vs male in a silkie? I have two silkies, they hatched may 11. I am just wondering if they should be laying by now or not if they are female. I’ve included a picture of my Naked neck, Ms. Frizzle😍
Good morning! I have one chick (naked neck partridge silkie) who continuously has pasty butt. I clean her off multiple times a day, they have probiotics in their water, I change the water 2 times a day, the temperature is steady, I have her on an in medicated organic starter feed, and she has...
I know that silkie chicks are more difficult to figure out the gender, but about how long do I have to wait until I will be able to tell? Picture of one of my newest flock members, A naked neck partridge silky named noodle.
Hi there! I just bought a gorgeous Chocolate Orpington rooster, and my current roo, a black and white Naked Neck, is not too thrilled. His name is Caelo (Latin for sky/heaven), pronounced Kai-low. He is the best rooster I have ever had. Mellow, good protector, amazing fertility (I have 20+ of...
I have 1 (so far) NN roo in my flock and my hubby says we only have room for Ram Rod, my amazing Naked Neck Daddy Roo.... I just need to figure out which of the two is the roo... Hate to re-home they are my first hatch and those I saved and hatched myself as the hen left her nest before time...

Hello, I had just got my gray necked neck silkie a few days ago and I just love her. She's 3 months old I named her Henrietta and I'm keeping her as a house chicken. I got her at Nessas Little Fluffy Butt Ranch-...
This is Becky. She was being kept in a dog crate in a basement for the past 7 months. Her previous owner’s didn’t know what to do bc her other larger chickens were extremely aggressive towards Becky and so she was kept separated from them for her own protection. I saw a picture of her and...
Blurry images of chicks.
They wouldn’t stay still and they didn’t like the flash. Oops.
Does anyone want to guess as to what any of these chicks breeds are?
Hi, I'm new to having chickens. I have 4 four week olds that I hatched. One of the is a naked neck and their feathers stick out weirdly. I attached a picture. Can someone please tell me if the way the feathers are growing is okay for the chick. Thank you.
