Ep175 - The Importance of Culling
Manage episode 382328827 series 2796552
Culling can be the greatest tool for most breeders, and controversial for other. But the truth is, most don’t know what to cull, when to cull and why they should cull. Just go to a breeder’s farm and look around. Once you are aware of all the defects or diseases that exist, you soon see how faulty most farms are, even on farms of so-called great breeders. The question is, why? As we know, culling is the most difficult part of breeding for most breeders, and therefore the most avoided practice. This occurs for many reasons, but none are good, because culling can make or break your strain. As you will learn, culling is a necessary function of creating a strain, and you need to make it a big part of your breeding program.
This episode is packed with great information, and one you do not want to miss. I know you will enjoy this episode, and learn a lot too.
We specialize in the breeding of gamefowl and chickens, and other breeding related topics. This includes the proper use of breeding programs.
Also, it’s our mission to provide our members a greater understanding of poultry genetics, poultry health care and disease prevention, and how to improve the production and performance ability of their fowl.
If you are interested in creating a strain, or improving your established strain, you are going to enjoy this show.
We also want to encourage you to join us at “The Breeders Academy,” where we will not only help you increase your knowledge of breeding, advance your skills as a breeder, but improve the quality and performance of your fowl.
