<p>In this off-the-cuff episode of <strong>"Bred to Perfection"</strong>, hosts Kenny and Nancy Troiano, along with co-host Frank Bradley, turn a technical hiccup into a golden opportunity for unfiltered discussion and community Q&A. While the planned deep dive into in-and-in breeding was postponed due to internet issues, the trio delivers a value-packed session filled with practical advice, genetic insights, and real-world breeding strategies.</p> <p>Listeners are treated to an informative mix of topics—from the genetics behind leg color and the significance of black spurs in Clarets, to the pros and cons of different poultry feeds and breeding for natural disease resistance. With stories, science, and straight talk, the episode emphasizes the power of selective breeding over medication and the importance of resilience in both birds and breeders.</p> <p>Whether you’re a seasoned breeder or just starting out, this episode showcases the heart of the "Bred to Perfection" mission: <strong>empowering breeders through education, community, and real experience.</strong></p> <p>Don't forget to check out the Breeders Academy—where knowledge meets application, and strains are bred to thrive.</p> <p><strong>Make sure to follow and watch our future shows.</strong> 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.<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span> Whether you're breeding domestic chickens, gamefowl, or various types of livestock, this show is for you.<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, <strong>Friday’s at 6pm PST or 9pm EST</strong> on <strong>YouTube,</strong> as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain.</p> <p><strong>See ya there!</strong></p> <p><strong>Kenny Troiano</strong></p> <p><strong>Founder of "The Breeders Academy"</strong></p> <p><strong>We specialize in breeding, and breeding related topics.</strong> This includes proper selection practices and the use of proven breeding programs.

<p><strong>Have you ever wondered if you have what it takes to become a true breeder?</strong> Or, whether you are a true breeder right now? This can be subjective, depending on who you talk to.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p><strong>The truth is, there is a big difference between a true breeder and someone who breeds.</strong> Some breeders select based on performance alone, while some look for the prettiest birds. However, it’s the breeders who embrace all areas of breeding, and select for the complete package that are the most successful.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p><strong>As breeders, we must be willing to learn all areas of breeding,</strong> which includes the sciences that so many dread.

<p>In the ever-evolving world of poultry breeding, understanding genetics is a game-changer for breeders looking to improve their bloodlines and strains.
