New chicks

[Rick589]

Never saw this brought up anywhere so…..If my rooster fertilizes eggs and my broody hatches these eggs, and these new chicks grow up, and the rooster starts mounting them how does this work with inbreeding?

I don’t know much but if you look up “line breeding” it might be a good place to start researching. You can mate a sire to it’s offspring perfectly fine for at least one generation. It does get weird at some point though. Someone with more experience will chime in but in the meantime that might give you enough to find something to read about it.
