    Purity of Blood and the Evolution Factor

    Purity of Blood and the Evolution Factor

    Join Kenny Troiano, Nancy Troiano and Frank Bradley, as they discuss what it takes to create, improve and maintain a pure strain.” In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we are going to talk about the many similarities between selective breeding and evolution, and by understanding the mechanisms of evolution, you can not only improve the way you breed your fowl, but create new forms for better functions. Many are using breeding practices that are creating the results they are looking for. In fact, it’s holding them back. Kenny and Frank are here to show there is a better way. Also, we are aware that topics, such as these, are controversial, and some say that breeding to create a pure strain is nothing but a myth. We will show you that not only is it not a myth, but it’s very possible. This is a show you do not want to miss!

    The Powers of Prepotency or the Allure of Hybrid Vigor

    The Powers of Prepotency or the Allure of Hybrid Vigor

    Ep200 – The Powers of Prepotency or the Allure of Hybrid Vigor
    One is temporary, the other is long lasting, but which is best?
    As a breeder, you have many tools that you can use to create and improve your strain. None are more important, or have the force to move your strain forward than that of Prepotency. The problem is, for many breeders, Hybrid Vigor gets all the credit. The truth of the matter, Prepotency and Hybrid Vigor are both incredible forces of nature, but are on opposite sides of the same coin. One is long lasting, and is passed down to future generations, while the other is short lived and can’t be reproduced or repeated. 
    Listen in as we discuss the Powers of Prepotency, or the Allure of Hybrid Vigor, and how you can use these forces to improve the quality and performance of your strains. This is a show you do not want to miss!

In this episode we will discuss what's good about crossbreeding, but also what's not so good about crossbreeding. We will tell you what others don’t want you to know. Hopefully, this episode will change the way you look at crossbreeding, and change the way you breed your fowl.  This is a show you do not want to miss!

    Breeding Practices are Wrong, But Never Go Away

    Breeding Practices are Wrong, But Never Go Away

    These are practices that have been used for years, but are not based on good science or good selective breeding practices, but never producing favorable results. These practices, or beliefs, arose suddenly, shared as if they were true, and adopted by others who were desperately looking for answers too. Not knowing whether they would work, and lacking any other ideas or ways of moving forward, they followed these practices and beliefs hoping they would give them the results they were looking for. 
    The problem is, when a large number of people are saying the same thing, the beginner feels, “then they must be true.” So they follow this advice, and keep following it even though it doesn't produce favorable results. They just keep following it, and acting as if it were true. This is a show you do not want to miss!
