I have bred a strain of Rhode Island Red Bantams for almost 25 years w/o any outcross. My fertility is still nearly 100% & hatchability is also high. If you line breed properly there's no reason for it to be a problem.

The key word being ( properly )

I know the way that NYREDS is talking about and and a person can go a long time with out outcrossing.. I been doing it for about 4 years my self fertility and hatchability is around 90-95%.
