I have 6 separate lines of Rooster and 6 lines of hens (the 3 hen lines are identical to 3 of the 6 rooster lines). I'm working to set up a Spiral Breeding program, but it seems daunting. I've worked out spreadsheets for the next generations and think I understand enough to begin but would appreciate feedback if I'm messing something up (or if I should be using Clan Mating). I'm thinking of just mating the first generation (what I'm beginning with) for the first year and then there will be a diversity in the lines to begin the normal Spiral Breeding program where all Females stay with the mother and the two best males are selected to move over to mate with the females in the next run.
I would appreciate any advice.... These two lines from Austria and four from Germany that I've bought and raised from eggs.
