08/31/20 • 51 min

In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we are talking about what constitutes contamination and the effects it can have on your strain and the future of their breed. Whether you are creating a strain, or working to improve an established strain, the introduction of the wrong blood can set you back for years. It could even destroy the strain forever. Join us as we talk about what this means and how to prevent this from happening to you and your strain.

We also talk about the functions and benefits of using sub-lines. I know you will find this interesting as well.

Ep69 - A Coaching Call with Parker Paredes

In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we are talking with Parker Paredes, who is one of our members of the Breeders Academy. Parker is from Honolulu Hawaii and he breeds Aseels, and he wants to develop a strain that is a true representative of their breed.

His question for me was, Do you have any recommendations on how to establish a baseline for characteristics/confirmation of the Aseel type fowl. Not only do I help Parker with his question, but I walk him through the selection and breeding processes. We talk about ways to improve the quality and performance of his strain.
