so i crossed a serama male with a nn female and only got a cockerel. i want to make a new breed, naked neck seramas! how do i start? do i use the cockerel and breed it to female seramas and start the breeding process from there??/

No; the example given was extreme inbreeding. Linebreeding is an acceptable practice, and does not involve breeding back to the same rooster generation after generation. With your initial cross, using multiple unrelated birds to make the cross can be used to prevent inbreeding.
so...

Why would you keep using the same roo? You could breed the barred rock influence out by using another RIR rooster.
what do you mean by "breed the influence out"
many people think they have malaysian seramas but in reality they have american seramas. malaysian seramas are rare in the us and are much smaller than american seramas. i guarantee over 99.9% of these seramas are american seramas not malaysian seramas.
don't worry I'm a believer, I once posted up my Chinese pheaseant x naked neck cross & lots of people on here were saying it was some other type of breed. But how would they know if I bred them myself.
