Hello :)
I was wondering what mix are my Naked Necks. I didn't know if the rooster would give a better clue than the girls. I got him from someone who said her hen (a naked neck) went missing and came back with babies. She is not sure who the rooster was that mated with her, because she has a neighbor with chickens as well. I bought him and three girls. Two of the girls have a few feathers on their legs. He and one other girl do not have feathered legs.
Thank you for any thoughts.

Very difficult to say for sure. Perhaps a black copper Marans cross. The father could have been a mix himself. There's just no way to know. But he's an attractive rooster regardless.
 
Thank you for the response. I was curious because some of his hatch mates have feathers on their legs and some do not. I think he is pretty, and love his long tail feathers. He has a good personality as well.
