You're much more scientific than I am. I just throw a bunch of stuff together that has traits I like and plan on sorting out the mess in later generations.I started making a landrace flour corn after reading about Joseph lofthouse. I think I’m on the 4th generation now. I started with 4 distinct varieties and combined them.
If I was to try an make an adapted chicken for our environment here in Texas, I’d probably start with American gamefowl, red junglefowl and something like a brown leghorn. I think they would have the right combination of wild and domesticated traits.
