How to aviod inbreeding?

[shuizar209]

What is that whenit colmes to chickens? I want to get 12 chicks and have at least one of those to be a roo. There might be a chance that some of these said chicks might be from the same hen. Could I still breed that said "rooster" to those said "hens" or would that be bad? Im so confused.

Can someone pleased shed some light on this for me? Thank you.

It's fine, happens all the time in closed flocks. Basically unavoidable.

Yes is still okay. Most breeders use related birds to improve their qualities. Should be nothing wrong with them.

Inbreeding and Line breeding are much diffrent. It would be okay if you bred Daughters to their father. So that would mean culling Males, the next off spring would need a non related rooster to not cause any genetic problems. Inbreeding can cause problems, but line breeding, aka Sons to moms and Dads to daughters are OK and when breeding show stock helps retain type.
