Help With Flock Breeding!

Hi, I was just wondering... if a bantam rooster with a case of “scissor beak” mates with my female Orpington, will all of the chicks have the genetic beak disorder, or just a fraction of them? Any help or experience would be greatly appreciated!

I wouldn't breed him if he's got scissor beak, I do believe that's generic and if it doesn't pop up first gen it could later down the line I believe :'(

I agree with @Northwest_Wannabe I wouldn't breed to hatch from him neither.

Not sure scissor beak is genetic or more of a incubation and/or parent stock nutrition issue.
Either way I'd not breed with him.

General rule, don't breed defects.
