Sustainable Poultry Farming

[Dapsk]

As a kid, I had 50 batch of ISA brown boys raised by myself on semi-free range. Since then I ve developed special interest in chicken genetics and the possibility of establishing a bio-efficient chicken strain on my farm.

The result of carefully documented line breeding and outcrossing of well established commercial strains as primary breeder/parent stock (since the DNA is present) with limited loss of the "hybrid vigour" in their offspring is a vital key to economic sustainabilty of small/medium scale poultry buisnesses.

Welcome to BYC. I didn't know that you could get male ISA browns. It would be interesting to hear and see more about them.
