Les, I have five good looking NN Hens. Three blue and two black. Three of the five don't have bow ties.
I also have a few other NN hens of mixed heritage.
I took your advice and was able to get some Jersey Giants from Charley.
I have a huge splash rooster, four black hens, one blue hen and one splash hen.
So between those 11 hens and the Bluee NN rooster and the Splash Giant rooster I am am hoping to put a lot of NN chicks on the ground this year.
I still have the original Redd NN roo and I now have five Rhode Island Red hens with him.
Sixteen or so hens with three roosters. I also have some Splash EE's that I can put with my Blue/Red NN roo.
