Mixed breeds, not trying to breed the same variety of chicken, just worried about the outcome of breeding relatives.

So your saying that it doesn't matter if I breed father/ daughter & father/granddaughter together?

I want to keep just one rooster with my flock of 6 hens and breed for replacement hens and eating. How do I keep the blood lines clean with just 1 rooster? Will I have to keep swapping roosters? Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks

Doesn't the calcium hurt them in any way or do they pick around it?

I have 4 hens and 3 chicks about 12 weeks old that were hatched because one of my hens went broody. 2 of them are female but I also got a rooster which I'm going to keep as I'll be moving to the country soon. My question is, what do the males eat, the feed I buy is for laying hens, I haven't...

Yes, I'm beginning to realize that! Just been outside with a couple of my younger chicks, I'm trying to get them to trust me. They'r 11 weeks old, they come near me now but are still wary if I make what they think is a sudden move. Got the rooster to eat out of my hand yesterday and today...
