Ep153 – There are 4 types of Breeders – Which one are you?

June 27, 2023 By Kenny Troiano

In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we will talk about how some believe they are breeders, but don’t know how to breed properly. We will talk about the 4 types of breeders that exist today, and how they affect the breed as a whole, this includes: Master breeders, Apprentice breeders, And the 85 percenters. You can decide which one you are. We will also talk about the other 20 percent, who are not breeders, but do produce fowl unintentionally or by accident, and the effects these breeders have on the breed as a whole. Furthermore, we will talk about ways of improving the 85 Percentors, and what they should know, and why some will succeed and others will fail. This is a show you do not want to miss!

Welcome to Bred to Perfection, a show for the serious breeder. Join Kenny Troiano, and his co-hosts Frank Bradley, as they talk about the breeding of gamefowl and chickens, and the issues that affect breeders like you.

Breeding has become both an artform and a science, and knowing genetics and the law of inheritance has change, not only the way we think about breeding, but how we breed our fowl. It is our hope that Bred to Perfection will motivate you to take the next step in creating the fowl of your dreams.

In this episode of Bred to Perfection, we will talk about how some believe they are breeders, but don’t know how to breed properly. We will talk about the 4 types of breeders that exist today, and how they affect the breed as a whole, this includes:

  • Master breeders
  • Apprentice breeders
  • And the 85 percenters

You can decide which one you are.

We will also talk about the other 20 percent, who are not breeders, but do produce fowl unintentionally or by accident, and the effects these breeders have on the breed as a whole.

Furthermore, we will talk about ways of improving the 85 Percentors, and what they should know, and why some will succeed and others will fail.

Then we will break down the 85 Percentors into 4 separate categories, such as:

  • The Ignorant Breeder
  • The Neglectful Breeder
  • The Mixer and Crossbreeders
  • And, the Accidental Breeder

We will conclude by discussing where you might fit it the overall scheme of things, and where you to can improve.

What type of breeder are you?

Successful breeders are equipped with keen powers of observation; are thorough students of form and function, which enables them to select and mate wisely. They are also good farm managers and intelligent feeders. As a result, they bring to full expression the inherent potentialities of their fowl.

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.
