As Breeders, the Breeding Season is our favorite time of year. However, if you don't prepare properly during the cold winter months, your breeding season is not going to be successful, and your goal of creating a strain will suffer. Join us as we discuss how to give your chickens the proper care they will need, so that you are going into the breeding season prepared and ready.

Join us on Thursdays at 6pm PST or 9pm EST, on YouTube and Facebook. This is a show you do not want to miss!

We will also take questions from the chat room.

See ya there!

In this episode, we will give you a number of useful tips, to get you ready for the upcoming breeding season. I had a great mentor who believed that preparation was the prerequisite to success. As a breeder, I took that to heart, and it has served me well for years. The breeder who prepares himself, and his birds, will be the successful breeding. This is an episode you do not want to miss.

In this episode, Kenny Troiano and his wife, Nancy are talking about why the "Age" of your brood fowl is so important to the viability of your strain. And, why you should always make sure to breed to youth. If you are in favor of breeding your stags with your pullets, or breeding your old cock with your old hens, this show is for you.

In this episode we talk about the Type and Conformation of Body. Although we use American and Old English Games as the model, the information is applicable for most breeds of chickens. We all want birds that can perform and reach their potential. Well, this is not going to happen with a family with good conformation of body. Listen in as we take the bird apart and put back together again. That’s right, we study all the parts that make up the whole, and their importance. This episode is packed with great information, and one you do not want to miss.

The Misuse and Abuse of Antibiotics, and their Consequences – The question I have for you is, are you using Medications, Antibiotics and Vaccinations Properly?

Our Special Guest is Dr. Rodrigo Gallardo – He's a Poultry Veterinarian, from UC Davis.

We all know how beneficial antibiotics and vaccinations can be. If used properly, and for the right reasons, these medical miracles can accomplish great things. However, many are using these so-called miracle drugs as an end all or fix all to all their medical and disease related problems.

They see a sniffle or sneeze, and they immediately shoot a half cc of Tylan 200 into the breast, and believe they are good to go. Instead of giving their birds a proper treatment plan, one that is accurately diagnosed, they rely on old wives' tales, such as - "At the first signs of sickness, inject them with antibiotics, and to make sure they never get sick, vaccinate the entire flock for every known disease." What's their overall plan? To use the shotgun approach by over medicating. But truth be told, they are creating a bigger mess than they realize. One that is going to affect them and their chickens later down the road.

Today, we are talking with Poultry Veterinarian, Dr. Rodrigo Gallardo about the use and misuse of Antibiotics and Vaccinations, and the consequences of these practices.

We're also going to talk about how to use them properly, and when to avoid them. It is my hope that you will gain a greater understanding of their uses, and the consequences of doing it wrong.

What are the benefits of buying someone else's strain vs creating your own strain? I'm a firm believer that it's better to create your own strain, then to rely on others to do it for you. Anytime you purchase new birds you are taking a chance. Because the fact is, there are more peddlers than true breeders, and most of the birds available are not pure, they are nothing more than hybrid crosses or mongrels. To make matters worse, many breeders only sell their culls. If you're not one of their family or friends, most likely you are not going to get good birds. THE BIG QUESTION IS, should you create your own strain, or do you continue to bounce around trying to find great fowl? For me, I would rather create my own strain.
