Do you have to worry about inbreeding your meat birds?

Do you have to worry about inbreeding your meat birds? I wasnt sure if that would be a problem or not. We would have one rooster to 3 or 4 hens.

If you're planning on breeding your cornish x meat birds...then no...because they'll drop dead before they hit breeding age.

The cornish x offspring (broiler birds) are bred for meat, not eggs.
