[> Subject: Re: thanking every one Author: D C T --friendly poultry orthopedist [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:55:05 10/13/08 Mon You are welcome. While several generations of inbreeding can be bad a bit of it will probably not cause any trouble. One of my peahens, Twister's Firstborn, has lived with her father, Midnight the Killer Peacock for all her adult life. Firstborn was hatched in 1992. She has produced many healthy peachicks. But I bought some green spaldings that must have become badly inbred while somebody was producing white spaldings. These had some strange toes and some had beaks that were just a bit strange. So I traded to get some fresh genes.
