I like these shows, hope y'all are going to be doing more.

Great presentation! Thanks for including more resources.

[@JohnDoe-id9hi]

Thank you! This is extremely helpful information. I'm interested in starting a very small hatchery business and this has really helped me.

Trump lost. No evidence of the contrary has been found. Going around saying otherwise hurts our democracy.

Continues to be completely depending on working hard to cull, improve, and select breeding stock. This is why it is so so important to start with good breeding stock.

I have 1rooster and 2hens black autralorps and a barred plymouth rock hen. Australorps hen lays medium size eggs and the barred rock lays large eggs. They are very beautiful birds

With the out cross, do not mix that pen until selecting the best of F2 with your other pens is a general rule.

How do you start spiral breeding if you only have birds from one line?

[@ImperiumSerama]

How do you determine that 3 males and 4 females is sufficient for X many generations?

[@victorgorleku1035]

Hi, you mentioned that you and your wife read a breeding paper. Will you be able to share the title of that paper?

[@pseudopetrus]

If you have two lines, and need some genetic separation, go back to the breeder who had the best foundation birds you started with and get another good bird form there, which will be related but not so close, four or five years apart hopefully.

HI guys!

Chickens that only lays hens. Or a hen that doesn't need a rooster to clone itself.

Hi

[@jjime1175]

Stop using the word “ sustainability “ it’s an over used word and why would you just want to sustain? Do we not want to build and go beyond the minimum ability to breed the flocks?

[@frustratedmajority851]

Its a word that implies an ability to continue forward without setbacks. When it comes to breeding, there is no secret cheat code that'll allow to to "go beyond" the minimum ability to breed unless you own a multi million dollar laboratory and understand DNA enough to rewrite it.

[@theonerealgreenman]

Let's sustain beyond
