Bred to Perfection

Join Kenny Troiano and Frank Bradley, as they talk about defects and why they are detrimental to the success and future of our strain, and why it’s important to recognize and cull all fowl expressing defects. The truth is, most breeders are not aware of half the defects that exist. It could be sitting right in front of them, and they would not see it. Are they just yard blind, or just unaware of what they are looking at, not knowing it’s, in fact, a defect. In this episode we will discuss just that. We will talk about many of the defects that exist, the importance of locating and recognizing these defects, and why it’s important to cull them. We will even talk about ways to improve a strain that is affected by defects. This episode is packed with great information, and one you do not want to miss.

Join us as we discuss the truth about breeding programs, and why they are so important in the creation, improvement, and maintaining of a strain. Everyone knows about outcrossing, backcrossing, inbreeding, line-breeding, and infusion. But, very few know why they are doing it, or when they should do it. They think those methods are the means to the end, when in reality, they are only tools used in a larger, more complete breeding program.
