The goal of this series
Even while most of us might quickly determine the quality of a game bird based on its outer look, this is not as significant as the animal’s internal organs—the heart, brain, and spirit—and not all excellent game birds are created equal. To some extent or another, we can always make an effort to understand the building principles that ought to point us in the proper direction.
Our goal in writing this article was to highlight the fundamental and most significant information that can be used as a guide for raising, breeding, and conditioning game birds. We also listed common issues that every cocker and breeder can encounter from the shell to the pit and provided solutions for each one.
Cock Breeding Secrets
We compile the majority of breeding misconceptions that we have heard from new people. Beginners frequently hold such wrong notions in mind. However, it is amusing to note that several seasoned breeders still hold these wrong beliefs regarding breeding.
The majority of game bird lovers typically believe that they will save money if they are the ones to manufacture the chicks and simply wait for the chicks until fighting age.
A common assumption is that “time is the reason gamefowls are pricey.” Any enthusiast who hears this notion is compelled to start a breeding regimen immediately without considering the other resources required for the entire breeding operation.
To determine whether a project is ready to move forward or not, experts like business analysts use a concept known as “total cost of ownership.” They anticipate and assess all reasonably foreseeable project costs. We strongly advise anyone who wants to try breeding to do so with the items listed below. The following factors will also prompt you to evaluate the cost of your gamefowl items.
Keeping The Bloodlines Intact
Considering that the breeder is fortunate to have a few bloodlines that are nicked. These bloodlines will eventually vanish after several years if they are not properly maintained through breeding. If the breeder then carried out the required maintenance breeding of the aforementioned lineages, over several years these bloodlines would need to outbreed to a new bloodline before they might inbreed once more.
Furthermore, bloodlines must have reserve stockpiles in case any of the ones that are now being used are ever lost due to illness, an accident, or theft. Hopefully, this won’t happen. Even when they are not being used, the reserves continue to drain resources, increasing the activity’s costs.
We need bloodlines
The sport of cockfighting is becoming more competitive as it develops. Different bloodlines will also be bred for infusion, in addition to other lineages. For example, Whitehackle, Albany, or any other lineage that you believe will supplement what the current broodstock is lacking to maintain or surpass the top position in sports. Most often utilized to increase size and gameness, Whitehackles and Albany are sometimes used for other purposes.
Facilities
Broodstock facilities are frequently neglected or not given any thought. The same facilities were required for the broodstocks and the reserved resources. Therefore, you are expanding the facilities that are needed twofold. Additionally, broodstocks had to be ranged when not in use, increasing the cost of ownership.
Conclusion
Finding “diamonds in the rough” is difficult. With deep gamecocks as a base, the breeder will have a strong foundation and, with some luck and wise breeding choices, something to be proud of. A breeder needs to be persistent and patient. He needs to produce as many chicks as he can, hard-cull them, keep accurate and thorough records, and spend as much time as he can just watching the birds.
Some cockers eventually even develop a “gut feeling” for mating particular people or crossing particular bloodlines. The important thing is to enjoy the process of breeding fiercely competitive, breathtaking, and breathtakingly gorgeous feathered warriors when they win in cockfights, whether you go on to become a legendary breeder or stay grounded on the backyard level.
