![]() ![]() When you inbreed fowls, there will eventually be recessive gene-dominant by-products and these must be ruthlessly culled. Since traits are lessened from one partner to the other by any mating by 60 percent, inbreeding allows you to breed back the traits to come up with offspring as close to the original champion through careful culling and there CAN be consistent production of good birds throughout generations. ![]() These will be further boosted by inbreeding birds having the same phenotype characters tied to some genotypes. The more you inbreed the more like genes are fixed. Genes are what make the hereditary traits of the bird appear in its conformation, health and innate fighting traits. Remember that the purpose of inbreeding is to fix like genes and produce the best traits for your stock. Mating first cousins - 6.3% (mild inbreeding).
