Breeding can be a challenging undertaking, but with a basic knowledge of selective breeding, not to mention lots of patience, progress can be made.

Join Kenny and Nancy Troiano as they discuss the importance of practicing a zero-defect policy.

As many of you probably know, gamefowl and chickens are incredible animals, but are known to have numerous weaknesses. These weaknesses are recessive faults that are caused by genetic impurities which are passed down from generation to generation. Although these weaknesses exist within the bloodline, if you make sure to cull the defective and breed only to the highly superior individuals, your fowl will improve.
