AI is short for artificial insemanation. In the process of AI well it aint natural.

O.....
Are White bobs the same size as Wisconsin Jumbo Bobs? Or smaller like the northerns?

 

[Robo]

They are smaller because they are a mutation of the Northern. The Jumbo Wisconsins also originated from the Northern, but through selective breeding they developed a larger strain with a larger wingspan and a lighter coloring.

So would it be best to AI a Jumbo male to a White hen? Or a northern male to a white hen or vice versa?

 

[Robo]

I wouldn't AI with out some training. I took a class on breeding and AI on quail and other domestic poultry before I attempted this. I would let a Northern male mate a White hen the natural way.

OK!!
BTW, my northerns are pure.
Know any where they sell whites?

 

[Robo]

I would check ebay and eggbid. Ebay doesn't have any at the moment but eggbid might.
