Many breeders operate under the assumption that they’re making informed decisions, yet often they are unaware of the crucial knowledge gaps that can lead to the downfall of their strains. It's essential to recognize that sometimes, the greatest risks come from what we don’t know we should be doing—or avoiding—in our breeding practices.

The journey of improving an established strain is rarely straightforward; it involves navigating a maze of complexities. While some choices may seem innocuous, they can have devastating effects on the integrity of a strain. Poor breeding decisions, neglecting essential practices, or failing to adapt to new information can all jeopardize your efforts and ultimately diminish your strain’s quality.

As breeders, our responsibility extends beyond merely creating a strain; we must strive to develop strains that stand the test of time. This involves not only improving our strains with each generation, but also ensuring their sustainability for the future. A solid foundation of best practices is crucial to achieving this goal.

Today, we’ll talk about the various pitfalls that can lead to the destruction of your current strain or thwart your aspirations of developing a unique one. Understanding these risks is the first step toward making informed, beneficial choices that will foster the longevity and success of your breeding endeavors. Let’s explore how you can protect and enhance your strain for generations to come.

Make sure to follow and watch our future shows. We plan to dive deep into the world of breeding and genetics, nutrition and health management, and provide essential tips, so you too can create high quality strains. Whether you're breeding domestic chickens, gamefowl, or various types of livestock, this show is for you.
