1st clutch & 2nd clutch pairing?

[de Vera Loft]

Is it advisable to pair 1st clutch and 2nd clutch siblings from a same pair of breeder? Any idea?

I've read that they don't usually recommend siblings mating.

I have heard pairing daughter back to father and son to mother, Im sure some siblings have paired off, but not sure what the outcome would be.

It all depends on what your trying to accomplish. If your wanting to In-Bred Full Bro/Sis together, that usually done for Stock purposes. (Best) You can also Line-Breed Half Bro/Sis together, again usually for Stock Purposes but that only concentrates the common parents genes. (Good) Or, Line-Breed the Parent to its child, usually for Stock. Again this only concentrates that parents genes. (Good) If your going to race any of the offpring to these matings, I would advise Cross-Breeding them to other birds as this is where youll retain your hybrid vigor. Now, there are always exceptions to these rules as I obtained a Stock cock from my mentor who is In-Bred from a Full Bro/Sis mating who turned out to be the '07 YB Champion in my club and also a Multiple Diploma winner in '08 OB's.
