This is a typical kind of hen from Guatemala.

I've done some research, but I haven't been able to find what they're called.
Are there any experts who can help me here?

Thank you in advance for any ideas and suggestions.

naked neck/turken


Explanation:
Thanks to Andres' reference!

The Naked Neck is a breed of chicken that is naturally devoid of feathers on its neck and vent.[1] The breed is also called the Transylvanian Naked Neck, as well as the Turken.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_Neck

Naked Neck (Turken)
Who knew turkeys and chickens could interbreed? This bird looks like a turkey due to its "naked neck", but it's all chicken! It was bred this way to be easier for cooks to pluck. Strangely, Turkens are said to fare very well in the cold despite their feather shortcomings and big combs (though these features do help them in the heat). They have an unusual look that some people don't care for, but they are also calm, very friendly and one of the easiest chickens to tame. Relatively rare in North America, Naked Necks are very popular in Europe, especially France and Germany.

La raza como tal tiene un origen impreciso, fue descubierta en 1873 en una aldea
vecina a Schassburg (Transilvania) por el cirujano J. Klusch., su nombre científico
es Gallus domesticus L. subespecie nudicollis, nombres locales: Carioca, cuello
desnudo, cuelli pelada; en inglés: Turkens-Naked Necks; en francés, Cou-nu;
en alemán, Nackthälse; El carácter "cuello desnudo" se debe a un gen
dominante (Na) cuyo recesivo (na) es el responsable del "cuello emplumado"
Es en este sentido se realizó la investigación sobre la caracterización de estas
gallinas para determinar un patrón racial sobre el cual continuar este proceso
de selección y conservación que permitan responder como son
morfológicamente las gallinas y gallos de cuello desnudo, así como, cuales son
las características fanerópticas, morfológicas y morfométricas para poder
confeccionar el estándar de la gallina peluca importantes para su selección y
conservación.

Se midió un peso máximo para los machos de 2,5
kilogramos, en hembras 2,0 kilogramos y el peso de los huevos es de 70 gramos. Se reporta entre 130-160 huevos anuales por gallina 9
