RBS Starts video blog
RB Sugbo Gamefowl Technology has started a video blog about scientific and practical gamefowl breeding.
It is posted on its various sites, including Online manok Academy, an online cocking school with 25,000 students as of 3rd quarter of 2018.
The first episode of the video blog is about science now can offer explanations on the many observations by old-time breeders that were left unexplained for many years.
In gamefowl breeding people advance observations without any supporting explanations. And many accept such observations without asking for explanations. How many times have we heard the observation that stags take their traits from the mother? How many times have we heard that the hen contributes 60-70% to the traits of the offspring? Likely these observations are true. However, have we heard enough explanation, why? None, or very vague explanations, if any. Yet, these observations must have a grain of truth as these have been handed down from one generation of breeders to another, virtually uncontested.
Actually, breeders during the pre Mendelian era had unconsciously benefited from then already existing but yet unknown laws of inheritance of chicken genes. They reached specific instances without being aware of scientific principles. No wonder, the master could not tell us then, because they themselves did not know about these principles. Now, armed with the knowledge, we can reverse the process and apply deductive reasoning. We will apply principles of genetics to reach specific instances.
