In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we are talking with Dr. Rachel Potter, who is a member of the Breeders Academy.
Rachel is a breeder of Modern Game Bantams, and breeds a number of varieties, such as Birchens, Silver Blues, and Splash, and she’s looking to create strain with each variety.
We talk about where in the Founders Program she is with each strain, what are the next steps she should take, and the future of her fowl.
We address many topics concerning breeding and creating a strain that I know you will learn from, including which traits are dominant and recessive, and which traits are polygenic, and what that means to the breeder.
We also talk about breeding methods, such as inbreeding, line-breeding and whether or not double mating is the right choice.
There’s a lot of great nuggets of information that I know you will not want to miss.
