multiplier or breeder

[minister man]

I recently read that people raising chickens are either a "multiplier" or a "breeder" What does that mean? How do you know which one you are?

Thanks

by multiplier they probably most likely mean that they are just multiplying bad or not up to grade birds instead of striving for perfection. A breeder is someone that is working to better their stock. But sometimes it seems like you are running an uphill race
