Breeding and creating a strain is governed by 3 important laws, such as the environment, their nutrition, and the traits they inherit. In other words, genetics. However, just the idea of genetics can be intimidating for many new breeders, and some veteran as well. Many even shies away from genetics, because it can seem confusing and difficult to understand and use.
It is my hope that we can show you, not only why genetic is so important, but also how to use it in the improvement and creation of your strains. Once you understand the basics, many other topics concerning breeding will become clearer.
Just know that genetics helps you select higher quality birds for breeding, helps you match your birds properly, and helps you predict your results, prior to breeding. This saves you a lot of time, money and effort.
In this episode, we will give you the basics of genetics, so you can get started on the right foot. If you would like to go deeper, and learn what it takes to create a strain, or improve your strain, I would like to encourage you to join the Breeders Academy. There, I can help you take you and your strain to the next level.
I have hundreds of members who started just like you, and now many of them are the leaders and teachers for the future. I hope you decide to join us, so I can improve your skills as a breeder, and help you to improve the quality and performance of your strain.
Everyone wants to make genetics complicated, but it’s actually very simple. You just need to understand a few basic truths, which I hope to show you in this episode. I’m not going to go through all genetics, or go really in dept, but I will give you some of the basics. I will say this though – this is not for the lazy breeder.
