- This is an interview I did with Brian Reeder, on April 2, 2023. Since then, we did 4 more interviews, discussing the many aspects of chicken genetics and color of plumage. All these interviews will be available for our members of the Breeders Academy.
The first interview was originally a 5 hour talk, and we talked about:
Inbreeding and Hybrid Vigor Quantitative Inheritance and Polygenic Traits The importance of Autosomal Pheomelanin The Breeding and Genetics of Whites and Progressive White The Breeding of Blues and Red Piles And so much more. Although the majority of this discussion was made available to our members of the Breeders Academy, we are making this segment on “The Origins of the Domestic Chicken” available for you, our listeners.
How did this conversation happen? One of my members of The Breeders Academy contacted Brian, and asked if he was interested in doing a show with me on poultry genetics, and color genetics, and he said yes. So I reached out to Brian, to set up an interview, and this is a small portion of that recording.
Understand that this recording was not originally intended for the public. Brian and me were just having fun talking chickens and genetics, and geeking out and sharing information. Letting out this particular phone call recording to the public was a total afterthought. The quality of this recording is a bit rough, but the upcoming episodes on genetics are much better.
Brian Reeder is a well known writer on poultry, and has done extensive research on Domestic Fowl and their Genetics. His books and articles have been based upon his experiences working with Domestic Fowl. And through the years he has collected important data, data that we can use today, in breeding and perpetuating higher quality fowl. He is also the author of two books on poultry genetics, “An Introduction to Color Forms of the Domestic Fowl” and “An Introduction to Form and Feathering of the Domestic Fowl.”
With Brian's permission, I am making this segment of the recording (The Origins of the Domestic Chicken) available to our listeners. There’s a lot of great information in this recording that I know you will enjoy and learn from. I learned a lot too. In fact, Brian changed many of my old paradigms.
Don’t miss out on this essential episode!
So, sit back, take notes and enjoy the show with Brian Reeder.
We will include links to his website, and the books he has written, in the show notes. His website on poultry is found at www.brianreeder... .
His books on poultry genetics are both easily accessible through Amazon.
