Big Daddy has officially retired!
He is off to his forever farm to live out his final years doing happy chicken stuff đ
Big Daddy has sired around 2,000 offspring over the last 2.5 years.
As of this year, we have officially surpassed his genetics. We have 6 males maturing to take over our two flocks.
What specific genetics did we outgrow?
His high tail, shorter back, low wings, and color.
Although he is in alert mode making his tail ultra high, these happen to be the same genetics most Cream Legbar breeders struggle correcting.
The key is culling! Cull! Cull! Cull!
Chickens inherit tons of genetic data. To breed out those defects, you must cull.
We cull twice a year. In June when our chick season comes to an end, and in February before it starts again.
In the next few weeks, I will have several laying hens available. My Opal Legbar is also being rehomed.
We only have two more hatches for the season!
