Ep167 – The Name Game and the Percentage Game

from Bred to Perfection · host Kenny Troiano

The title says it all. The Name Game has been used for many decades, and for many reasons, but we are never going to improve our fowl, or the breeders who breed them, until we stop using old names of strains that don't exist anymore. It's also a big reason why many breeders play the Percentage Game.  They use the Name Game and Percentage Game to place greater value to birds that no longer represent their breed. The sad truth is, it's turning a great breed into nothing more than a mongrel breed.  The Name Game and the Percentage Game is a peddler's playground, and it's holding back many Breeders, especially our beginners. The big question is, what can we do about it?  Join us as we talk about this very controversial subject, and discuss issues, and hopefully come up with ways to reverse this trend.  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.
