Breedinggamefowlisagoodbusinessbutnottoothers

I would like to breed fighting cocks for business but from the day I started it up to two years it is
not good for me. There is no return of investment (ROI) instead I spend forty thousand pesos in a
year and I lost not only money but also my time and effort. It is very frustrating that all my
efforts and sacrifices will end to nothing. I have question why there game fowl breeder who start
in breeding a little and now they are successful and earn income in breeding of game fowl. I
really love to breed game fowl and I want to produce quality battle crosses for sale so that I can
earn money.
I study and research how those breeders make good business in breeding of game fowl even they
are only small time. What they do is to breed quality fighting cocks then look for a financer to
finance the entry fee in a derby then if they can get a good winning percentage in the derby lots
of buyer will come to them and buy fighting cocks. Another way on how a game fowl breeder
earns money is to breed then sell the fighting cocks to a person who buys and sell fighting cocks.
They look for a buyer that can buy volumes of fighting cocks.
Their secret on how to make good money in breeding fighting cock is to breed and produce
quality fighting cocks so that buyers will always come back and buy your fighting cocks. In that
sense breeding of game fowl is a good business to you. If you breed and sell fighting cocks that
cannot make a good record in a derby only few customers will come to buy and they purchase it
at low price which cannot contribute to your expenses in breeding.

Oldlinelemonandbattlecrosses

One of the famous and legendary game fowl or fighting cocks bloodline is the lemon. Lemon are
very good foundation bloodline that can be cross breed to any game fowl blood line like
roundheads, hatches, sweaters, grey, butcher and other blood line.

The lemon has a fighting style that is admire by every cockers. Lemons are vertical flyer and
because of that characteristic it can cause a deep wound to its opponent cock. Lemons are also
side stepper which is good because the opponent cock cannot easily hit a lemon. Lemon fighting
cocks is also tricky and wise and have patience. One characteristic of lemon blood line that I like
most is its ability to give his best during drag fight and to fight up to the last breath.
The battle crosses of lemon blood line will give you more winning percentage. There are
champion breeder who successfully become a derby champion that uses the lemon crosses like
Juancho Aguire, Eddie Boy Ledesma, Joe Laureo, Lancey dela torre, Paeng Araneta and Others.
In my case I cross my lemon blood line to dink sweater. The lemon sweater battle crosses give
me more winning percentage. The fighting style or characteristics of this battle crosses are they
are smart like lemon and they have speed and power. They break high and they can give a good
shuffle.
Other characteristic of lemon bllod line which do not like by some game fowl breeders are they
are low to medium station and they are slower compared to other game fowl blood line. But the
secret in the lemon blood line is the battle cross or its crosses. If you know which blood line you
are going to cross breed your lemon blood line you can get more higher winning percentage.
Game fowl breeding is like an experiment, so do your experint on which blood line the lemon
can be cross breed better.

Scratchboxandflyingpen
Game fowl breeders and handlers have its own method of conditioning and preparing their battle
or fighting cocks. There is several conditioning method like the traditional one that I used before
which I used the table exercise. In this method I do table workout for my fighting cocks I used
the table for running exercise of my fighting cock were I hold the fighting cocks and keep it
running. I used the scratch pad so that the fighting cock can scratch their legs by holding the tail.
This method is only good if you have time and you prepare few fighting cocks for battle. It is not
good to use this method if you are preparing more fighting cocks for battle and if you have
limited time.
In modern days were fighting cocks derby is very popular like the bakbakan stag derby, world
slasher cup, candelaria and other big time derbies it is good to use the rotation method in
conditioning and preparing your battle or fighting cocks in order to become a champion in big
time cock derby.In rotation method you need to have flying pen. The use of flying pen in
condition your fighting cocks, it can help to develop leg muscle and wing muscle of fighting
cocks. It can also help to reduce fats in fighting cocks. By using flying pen it can reduce the
weight of fighting cocks while the good body formation is maintained. Having a fighting cock
with good body formation and less weight is an advantage in a derby.
Other conditioning material that I used in rotation method is the scratch box and chord area. My
procedure in conditioning and preparing my fighting cocks for derby are early in the morning at
4:00 AM I expose my fighting cocks to light for 30 minutes, at 4:30 AM I put them in a scratch

box for 30 minutes, at 5: 00 am I chord them, at 6:00 AM I feed them, at 10:00 AM I put them in
flying pen, at 3:00 PM I chord them, at 4:00 PM I feed them. Then I repeat the procedure daily
by starting to expose them to light at 4: AM and so on.

AlabamaBlackSweaterCrossBreeding

The breeding of game fowl or fighting cocks needs more time, money, effort and dedication. A
breeder needs to understand about genetics in order to become a successful game fowl or
fighting cocks breeder. A breeder needs to know about in-breeding and line breeding in order to
maintain or preserve the original game fowl or fighting cocks bloodline. Cross-breeding is
important to be understood by a breeder in order to produce a most winning battle cross. Many
successful game fowl or fighting cocks breeders in Bacolod City or in Negros are gave more on
their time, effort, dedication and spending money in their breeding of fighting cocks.
Based on my own experience, breeding of fighting cocks is not an easy task you need to be
experimental doing lots of trial and error in order to arrive in producing quality breeding
materials and winning battle cross. I would like to share to those beginners in the breeding of
fighting cocks if you want to be successful in game fowl breeding you will invest in your
breeding materials. Good breeding materials will lead you to success in the game fowl breeding.
The price of quality breeding materials is very expensive in a well-known farm. My advice is in
order to get a low cost but very good breeding materials you can to some small time breeder in
Bacolod City or Negros and you can select and buy quality and low cost breeding materials to
them.
In my case, I acquired my dink fair sweater brood stag to a simple breeder but his chicken are of
quality. I also buy a Alabama black hen to a small time breeder in Negros. I cross breed the
Alabama black to a dink fair sweater and I am very satisfied with their offspring in terms of
cutting
ability,
speed
and
power.

HowImaintainmySweatergamefowl

The breeding of fighting cocks or gamefowl is very interesting for me. My interest of fighting
cocks or gamefowl started when I was 9 years old when a piece of land of my grandfather was
rented by a gamefowl breeder and use as chord area of fighting cocks and also for breeding. That
is in the year 1985, I can see and observed every day the routines of the care taker or handler of
game farm. Day feed the fighting cocks at 6:00 am in the morning and 4:00 pm in the afternoon.
Chicks are feed 3 times a day one in the morning, one at noon time and another one in the
afternoon. I learned also about the basic of breeding like in-breeding, line breeding and crossbreeding. I got idea from them and I used it today to maintain my dink sweater bloodline. I
learned how to maintain a gamefowl bloodline through observation and questions to the farm
handler
or
care
giver.
In my case I have a simple way on how I maintain my sweater bloodline so that I can preserve it
in long time. I called my way of maintaining gamefowl bloodline in and in. In this method of
maintaining bloodline I have my sweater brood cock and I want to maintain and preserve this
bloodline what I did is first I selected two brood hens of different bloodline a lemon and Gilmore
hatch hen. Then I breed my sweater bloodline to lemon hen (single mating). I mark the offspring
of sweater lemon crosses so that I can recognize and identify then easily and record it in my
breeding notes. Their offspring is composed of a 50% sweater and 50% lemon. Then I also crossbreed the sweater brood cock to Gilmore hatch hen (single mate). I also make a different mark to
their offspring so that I can recognize them easily. Their offspring is composed of a 50% sweater
and 50% Gilmore hatch. Finally when their offspring become matured and ready to breed, I
choose the best offspring (stag) from 50% sweater and 50% lemon and I also choose the best
offspring (pullets) from 50% sweater and 50% Gilmore hate and breed them. The result is that
their offspring become more or less a 100% sweater and it really looks like the original sweater
brood cock in terms of looks and characteristics. That is my way on how I maintain my sweater
gamefowl
blood
lne.
You can apply it to different game fowl bloodline, what I like in this method of maintaining a
bloodline is that it is easy, fast and can replicate the bloodline you want to preserve.

Eyecolorofgamefowlasbasesforbreeding
The breeding of gamefowl is very challenging since there are many things to consider when
starting up breeding gamefowl. As far as I know the things to be considered when breeding
gamefowl are the foundation bloodline should have a good quality. A winning bloodline and it is

come from a well-known breeder. The brood cock should be pure not a battle cross, if it is a
battle cross it should be a multiple winner in bigtime derby. The brood cock is high in station,
good body formation and better bone structure. For the brood hen the characteristics should be
high station, good body formation and both brood cock and brood hen should be in good health.
One thing that I am confused is about the eye color of brood cock or brood hen to be chosen.
According to some breeder they prefer to choose the gamefowl that has red eye because it can
see clearly then a gamefowl with dark eye especially during night. As we all know that all big
time derbies are usually held during night time, so they prefer to breed the red eye gamefowl
than the dark eyes.
There are also game fowl that has a light yellow eye, according to some breeder game fowl with
light colored eye cannot see very well especially if there is a light example fluorescent light.
During big time derby lights are always shinning in the cock pit.
My question is what eye color should be choose or should be considered when choosing a
breeding material? I do some research and I found out that more game fowl breeder prefer to
choose the game fowl with a red eye because a game fowl with a red eye can see very well
during day time, night time and even if there is a light.

Howtomaintaingamefowlbloodline
Battle cross is only a product of cross breeding the original or pure blood line. For example a
game fowl breeder has a pure Lemon brood cock and a pure boston roundhead brood hen cross
breeding the two will produce a 50% lemon and 50% battle cross. Pure game fowl bloodline
need to be maintain or preserve. Original breeding material should be keep for the future
breeding. This article will short ideas on how you are going to maintain or preserve a gamefowl
bloodline.
The traditional way of maintaining or preserving a gamefowl blood line is by in-breeding. For
example line-breeding. It is where the pullets is breed back to her father or the stag is breed back
to his mother. After having a pullet from that breeding breed back again to her grand father(the
original brood cock) or the stag is breed back again to is grand mother and so on
Another is to breed sister and brother. Some gamefowl breeder do this in order to preserve their
original gamefowl blood line. The line breeding is also a good breeding method to be used in
order to maintain a gamefowl bloodline. IN my case I maintain my gamefowl bloodline by
mating half brother and half siter. In this method I choose my best broodcock then breed to
different hen. For example my broodcock is Lemon I single mate it with the roundhead hen, then
I also single mate my lemon broodcock to my Dink sweater hen. And finally I choose a stag from
lemon x roundhead and I also choose I pullet from lemon x dink sweater. To maintain my lemon
bloodline I breed the lemon roundhead stag to a lemon x dink sweater pullets. With that I make a
selection to the pullets and stags coming from the breeding of lemon roundhead and lemon dink
sweater and make it as my new lemon stock.

Seasonofbreedingfightingcocks
In the Philippines the breeding season of fighting cocks start from the month of October up to
February of next year. The reason why October to February is ideal for breeding because the
temperature between these months is not so hot and there is not much rain in this season. Stag
derby is popular in the Philippines like the bakbakan ang digmaan and when breeders start
breeding in the month of October the breeding that they can produced will be banded and then
later
qualified
to
join
in
stag
derby.
Most of the fighting cocks or gamefowl breeder joins the stag derby that is why they start their
breeding in the month of October and some of the breeder breed for stag derby purpose. The
eggs produced during breeding season (October to March) have a higher percentage of
hatchability compared to eggs produce in summer season. Another point why it is ideal to start
breeding in the month of October is that during when rainy season comes (Starting the last week
of May to August) the breeding you produced is already a stag during rainy season and it can
resist
to
heavy
rains.
It is not Ideal to breed during rainy season and summer season because it will cause high
mortality rate to your chicks. Breeding during rainy days will cause to loose in the part of
breeder
in
terms
of
money,
time
and
effort.
Before you start on breeding you need to select the best breeding material, you need to do the
following, deworm, delouse, trim and give vitamins like B-Complex and proper feeding by
proving your broodcocks or brood stag and broodhen or brood pullets a better breeder pellet.
Providing a better brood pen with enough space, sunlight and grass can help to have healthy
environment to your birds.

Breedingseasonforfightingcocks
Gamefowl breeders are now preparing for the breeding season because from October up to
March is an ideal to breed gamefowl or fighting cocks. The breeding of gamefowl needs more
preparation because if a breeder is not wel-prepared your breeding of fighting cocks or gamefowl
will result to loose of money. The basic things you should consider in the breeding of gamefowl
is that to have a good breeding materials that can produced better fighting cocks that can
compete in small or even bigtime derbies like the bakbakan, candelaria international derby or
world slasher cup.
Having a good material before breeding is very important so that your breeding will end right
because you start it right. Good breeding materials can produce quality fighting cocks with
characteristics of high station, good looking and excellent fighting style. Aside from having
better breeding materials it is also important to set your goals for example you breed because you
are going to sell your fighting cocks or you are going to join in a derby. After setting your goals
you need to find a handler or care taker that will take care of your birds. You need also to find a
place that is ideal to breed fighting cocks and construct a breeding pen and other things needed in
the breeding.
Before mating the brood cock and hen make sure they are in good health and conditions.

Meaning you need first to condition your breeding materials so that they give you a healthy
chicks. After you can produced out of your breeding dont forget to apply vaccination in your
birds. In my case I start with B1B1 lasota, then bronchitis and fowlfox vaccine.
Giving vaccine to your bird can help to secure the health of your birds and it can prevent some
diseases. A healthy fighting cocks is advantageous to the sickly one, so always make sure that
you give proper feeding, vitamins and vaccination to your birds. You need also to know about
genetics like in-breeding, line-breeding, and cross-breeding.
The breeding of gamefowl or fighting cocks for me is trial and error because you need to breed
and cross-breed fighting cocks until you can find the best battle crosses that can give you more
wins.

Howtomaintaingamefowlbloodline
As breeder of game fowl it is very important to maintain the bloodline that is tested and give you
a high percentage of winning and championship in major stag derby like bakbakan and cock
derby like world slasher cup. There are many ways used by game fowl breeders to maintain the
bloodline of fighting cocks. The common is breeding of offspring back to parents or breeding of
a full sister to full brother. For me that technic is good in preserving or maintaining a game fowl
but I have another technic on how do I maintain a game fowl bloodline.
The method on how to maintain a fighting cock or game fowl bloodline is very important to a
breeder. In my case I use the in-and-in method in maintaining my game fowl bloodline. In this
method I did not mate offspring back to parents and mating full sister to full brother. What I did
to maintain bloodline is I select my finest brood cock for example I would like to maintain my
Roundhead bloodline, to do that chooses my best two hens for example a lemon and hatch. I
breed these two hens to my roundhead brood cock and make sure to identify the eggs off two
hens for example the egg of lemon is identified and also the eggs of hatch. When the eggs of a
lemon hen hatches and later grown up I choose the best stag (50% roundhead and 50% lemon).
And I also choose the best pullets produced by the hatch hen (50% roundhead and 50% hatch).
To maintain the roundhead bloodline I breed the stag composed of 50% roundhead and 50%
lemon to a pullet composed of 50% round head and 50% hatch. The result of that mating is an
offspring with a high percentage of a roundhead. In that way you made to maintain your game
fowl bloodline, in the example is the roundhead. You can apply this method to your own needs
and on your own bloodline that you want to preserve or maintain.

Myownmethodofbreedingfightingcocks
The breeding of fighting cocks is very challenging because you need more time doing trial and
error, money and effort. In order to become a fighting cocks or game fowl breeder it is important
that you have a knowledge on genetics in order for you to produce the best fighting cocks that
can compete in big time derbies like candellaria, world slasher cup, big time stag derbies like
bakbakan and digmaan derby.
Breeding concepts like inbreeding, cross-breeding, line- breeding and others are also need to be

understand by the fighting cocks or game fowl breeding. The concept of in-breeding is that you
are going to breed brothers and sisters, the purpose of this type of breeding is to preserve the
bloodline. Cross-breeding is the type of breeding were game fowl bloodline is cross-breed to
other bloodline like the cross breeding of lemon to sweater. This type of breeding is used to
produce a battle crosses. Another type of breeding is the line breeding was offspring is breed
back to his mother or her father. The purpose of this is to retain the good qualities of a parent.
My own method of breeding in order to produce a breeding material is I choose a brood cock for
example dink fair sweater, then choose two brood hens example lemon and the other one is
roundhead. In order to produce a brood stag to be use as breeding material I breed my sweater
brrod cock to a lemon brood hen to produce a 50% sweater and 50% lemon offspring and called
it as output A. Then I cross breed my sweater brood cock to my roundhead brood hen to produce
a 50% sweater and 50% roundhead offspring and called it as output B. Then finally I cross-breed
output A to output B, then the offspring that produced by cross-breeding output A and output B is
the one I use as my breeding material. It is likely the same characteristics with my original
sweater brood cock. Now I can produce battle crosses out of the output from cross-breeding
output A and output B.

Businessinbreedingfightingcocks
Starting a business is not easy because there are competitors who are good in making money out
of business. I am thinking what kind of business I should start but I cant think and find answer
to my question. I want to produce products and later sell it to the market but I cant think of
product to be produce. One day I come to an idea to invest in gamefowl breeding and my goal is
to produce winning fighting cock. In that sense if I can make the best fighting cock I can sell it
and I can have more money.
As I read and study some of the concepts of breeding, I learn that gamefowl breeding is not easy
because you need money, time and effort in order to produce a winning line gamefowl or fighting
cocks. You need to buy quality breeding materials like brood cock and brood hens and you
undergo trial and error until you can find the best crosses that can have higher percentage of
winning in the pit.
Knowing that reality in the breeding gamefowl is so difficult in terms of having more time and
money to invest. Aside from that you need to find a farm to be used in gamefowl breeding. I
thing this business is not good for me to start with. One day I meet one of my friends who breed
fighting cocks I talk to him that I want to breed fighting cocks luckily he gave me some advice
and his dink
fair sweater brood stag to me.
At that time, I have brood stag to be used in breeding; All I need is a brood hen or pullet so that I
can start the breeding. I went to my brothers home and he has a Mc Clean hatch hen and he offer
it to me I bring home it and in the following day I set up a breeding pen and prepare my brood
stag and hen for breeding. I delouse, deworm and do some bacteria flushing before start breeding
them.

After several months I produced offspring from the sweater x mc clean crosses two stags and
four hens. I pit the two stags in hack fight and they win all with a little scratch. I breed back the
stags to their mother then I got mc clean hatch and dink fair sweater. I breed the four hens
back to their father and I got dink fair swaeter and mc clean hatch. Later I acquire hulsey
lemon brood cock and I breed it to my hens and produce a 3-way cross the lemon x sweater x
hatch. I tested this battle cross and give me more winning.
I sell my stags at PHP 3000 and my cocks at PHP 5000, the business in breeding of fighting
cocks need more time to produce winning battle stag or cock, but if you find the winning crosses
you can have money out of it. You can sell it online or in local buyer at your place. Gamefowl or
fighting cocks breeding is now one of the business that is growing.

Experimentinlemonasfoundationbloodline
The breeding of fighting cocks or gamefowl in order to produce the most winning bloodline is
very difficult. Today cock derby and stag derby like hari ng rueda, araw ng Davao, world slasher
cup bakbakan, digmaan and other derby are very competitive. Lemon gamefowl are old line and
still a winning bloodline of today. As a gamefowl breeder I have experiment with the lemon
gamefowl and I found out the the crosses coming from lemon are better and give me a battle
cock who are vertical flyer, side stepper, brainy, and has good cutting ability.
Original lemon gamefowl are low to medium in station, although their shank are short but their
drum stick are long and that is one thing I like them because the lemon can cut very well. There
are many gamefowl or fighting cocks breeder who use lemon as their foundation bloodline. They
cross-breed lemon with other bloodline in order to produce a winning line battle cross.
As I experiment with the lemon gamefowl I found out the the power of lemon is if you know
how to cross-breed them. Some of the successful crosses of lemon gamefowl or bloodline that
are tested and up to now are still winning are the lemon roundhead, lemon sweater, lemon grey,
and lemon hatch.
I also found out in my experiment of lemon gamefowl that the station of lemon that is low to
medium is not a dis-advantage because the fighting cocks throw their punches like in hugging
motion and being low to medium in station they can cut very will and produced a deep wound
and their punches almost hit in the opponent. Lemons are like snipper they can kill their
opponent easily in just one shoot.
I found out that some of the well-known gamefowl breeder champion are using lemon as their
foundation bloodline in order to produce a better and winning line battle cross. One of the
breeder quoted this you are not a breeder if you do not have lemon in your game farm.

Mostwinningbloodline
In cock fighting winning in the pit is very important because it involves money. Producing a
winning line in the breeding of fighting cocks is very difficult in the sense that you need to
undergo several experiment, trial and error and you are going to spend more money and time. In

order for you to save time and money for the quest of producing a winning bloodline you need to
find out what blood line are most winning. If you find answer for your quest on what particular
fighting cocks bloodline is winning you can acquire it to some known fighting cocks breeder
who breed that wining blood line buy it to them and you can start your own breeding.
The most winning blood lines are the kelso, roundheads, lemon, and hatches family of game
fowl. Kelso game fowl are very good to be use as your foundation blood line; you can crossbreed kelso to any bloodline for example to hatches. The well-known breeder of kelso in the
Philippines as I know are Biboy Enriquez of Firebird Gamefarm and Raffy Yulo of Rapapap
game farm. Rounheads are also use by many game fowl breeders to produce the most winning
line. As far as I know Lance de La Torre the Master Breeder is one among those who breed the
Roundeads in his Redfoot gamefarm. Roundheads are very good to cross-breed with the lemons.
Lemon is the foundation bloodline use by most Bacolod gamefowl breeder in Negross. Some of
the breeders of lemon as far as I know are Eddie Boy Ledesma of Fire and Ice gamefarm, Joe
Laureo of JVL & Sons Gamefarm, Mayor Juancho Aguirre of JGA Gamefarm and others.
Lemon are good to be cross-breed with grey, hatches, kelso, roundhead, and sweatrer. The most
winning line who record in some prestigious fighting cock derby like world slasher cup are the
lemon crosses.
In order for you to produce the most winning bloodline you need to have a winning material like
brood cock and brood hens. And it is important that you understand genetics and basic breeding
concepts like in-breeding, line-breeding, and cross-breeding.

Factorsonhowtobeachampionbreeder
The derby that I am referring in this article is about the factors to be considered in order to
become a champion gamefowl breeder in cock or stag derbies like world slasher cup, candellaria
derby, bakbakan, digmaan and other derbies. There are lots of cock fighting enthusiast that ask
on how to become a champion in cockfighting derby. To become a champion is not an easy task
because cock fighting today is very competitive.
In order to become a champion game fowl breeder you need to consider several factors like
blood line. In the breeding of gamefowl the choice of good bloodline to be used in your breeding
is very important. A superior gamefowl blood line has a great factor that can contribute to you to
become a champion gamefowl breeder. After you can find a superior game fowl bloodline you
need to condition your broodcock and broodhen, a healthy breeding material will produce
healthy offspring that will lead in your success and become a champion gamefowl breeder. After
your broodcock and broodhen produced their offspring you need to take good care of their
offspring, give them proper nutrition and proper vaccination to insure they will grow healthier.
When they already growing up and become a stag continue to give them proper nutrition,
vitamins and provide them training. You can construct a scratch box, flying pen, and running pen
that you can use in training of your fighting cocks.
If you decide to join in derby you need to prepare them by giving a pre-condition program. After
pre-conditioning, you can prepare them to start the conditioning using a 21-days conditioning
method or whatever method that you want. If you do not know how to condition your fighting

cock, you can find a handler that will be in charge for the conditioning of your fighting cocks. In
derby or cockfighting the tying of gaff or tari is very important. You need to find someone you
can trust to tie the tari in your fighting cock.

Lemonfoundationbloodline
The lemon bloodline is still winning as of today and when cross breed to other bloodline like
roundhead can compete against modern game fowl like the sweater. Manny game fowl breeder
especially Bacolod breeder are still using the Hulsey lemon as their foundation bloodline. Some
of the Negros breeder like Lance de la Torre, Mayor Juancho Aguirre, Eddie Boy Ledesma, Joe
Laureo, Choy Ampil and others are among popular breeders who have Hulsey Lemon in their
gamefarm.
Lemon bloodline is also one of the best game fowl for me because of their gameness and fighting
style such as brainy, smart, accurate cutting ability, vertical flyers , excellent timing and I like
lemon because instead of ducking they side step. Lemon are my foundation bloodline, I cross
breed it with dink sweater. Lemon are low to medium in station but when cross breed to dink
sweater who are high station will improve their station and produced a better battle cross with a
fighting style and gameness of lemon and better fighting style in the air.
Some lemon crosses that produce successful battle cocks are lemon cross to hatch-claret, lemon blue face hatch, lemon-cecil greys, lemon-dan grays, lemon-boston roundheads and lemon
sweater. Some of the game fowl breeders who became champion in the international derby who
have drops of lemon bloodline in their game fowl use in derby are sir Paeng Araneta, sir Lance
de la Torre, sir Bob Cuenca, sir Peping Ricafort and sir Tony Trebol.
In my own opinion, lemon bloodline is the past and the future foundation bloodline. You can
cross breed lemon game fowl to any bloodline and it can produce a winning battle cross.
Although lemon is not beautiful in appearance but I believed that cockfighting is not a beauty
contest, what is important is, it give you more win in the pit.

Kelsofoundationforgamefowlbreeding
The breeding of gamefowl is not an easy job. In order to become a fighting cock or gamefowl
breeder you should know about the concept of breeding and genetics. A gamefowl or fighting
cock breeder should be knowledgeable about in-breeding, cross-breeding, line breeding, and
other types of breeding. To become a successful gamefowl or fighting cock breeder it is
important to have knowledge about the different bloodline like the kelso, hatch, grey, clarets,
roundheads, butcher, white hackle, and other foundation bloodline.
There are gamefowl or fighting cocks breeder who use kelso as their foundation bloodline
because kelso is versatile and can be cross-breed with the different gamefowl bloodline that can
produce better battle cocks. They prefer kelso to be their foundation bloodline because kelsos
have been known to be really smart fighters on top of power, speed and multiple shuffle or
evasion tactics. Kelso are best to cross-breed with sweater, brownred, hatch, and roundhead.

Aside of using kelso as the foundation bloodline, some gamefowl breeder also use the grey,
hatch, lemon, roundhead and clarets as their foundation bloodline.
Today kelso gamefowl are still winning in some major derby competition. Some are pure and
some are cross-breed with other bloodline. Personally I like kelso because of their smartness and
fighting style who can make side-steps and wave, and they are both good in air and ground
assaults. I like kelso as the foundation bloodline in breeding of fighting cocks because kelso is
best to be cross-breed with any bloodline that can produce a very competitive battle cock or stag
that can be use in some derby.

Preventionofgamefowldiseases
As gamefowl or fighting cocks breeder the prevention of diseases is very important because
gamefowl are prone to diseases and when it hits on your birds it can cause too much money loss
to a breeder. How to prevent gamefowl diseases? And what vaccination is going to apply in order
to prevent gamefowl diseases?
Some of the of the gamefowl or fighting cocks diseases and vaccination are gumboro disease
which is a contagious viral infection of a young chickens. For gumboro disease some gamefowl
breeder use the hipragumboro GM97 vaccine. This kind of vaccine for gumboro deisease is a
live strong but safe vaccine which can be given even in the presence of high level of maternal
antibodies . The administration can be through eye drop, mouth drop, nose drop, drinking water
or spray.
Another type of gamefowl disease which is common is coryza which characterized by an acute
respiratory disease which is fast spreading. The symptoms of coryza is birds have swollen facial
tissues. One of the vaccines that can be used in coryza is the Coripravac AH which provides
protection against A, B, and C serotypes of infectious coryza.
New Castle Disease or NCD is very dangerous gamefowl disease because there is no treatment
for this only prevention through vaccination. NCD is a gamefowl disease caused by a virus. The
symptoms of NCD includes respiratory disease and gut lesions leading to poor growth, nervous
signs that include paralysis and twisting of the head and sudden death. Some of the vaccines that
can be used against new castle disease are 1. Hipraviar-clon which is live cloned NCD vaccine
used for priming and booster vaccination. 2. Hipraviar-B1 which is a live NCD B1B1 strain
vaccine used for priming vaccination. 3. Hipraviar-S which contain live NCD La Sota strain
vaccine used for booster vaccinitions.

Lemongamefowlcrossbreed
Last week my friend gave me a lemon pullet which came from his winning line lemon gamefowl
he told me that I am going to cross breed it to my hulsey grey. The father of this lemon pullet is a
five times winner and now a five year old cock. Lemon gamefowl are medium stationed known
for its smart fighting style, an offbeat sense of timing that catches its opponent with powerful
single stroke killing hits. It is a vertical flyer, is known to sidestep and counterattack.

Lemon is also one of my favorite gamefowl bloodline because as I observed lemon gamefowl
will fight up to their last breath. They will never give up to their opponent cock, they will
continue to fight even they are heavily wounded.
Some say it lacks gameness but crosses with Albanies, Kelsos and Sweaters gamefowl will
produce a better battle cock. In my case I would like to cross breed lemon gamefowl to my duke
Hulsey grey, because the best lemon gamefowl are also come from the legendary gamefowl
breeder Duke Hulsey. The hulsey grey and hulsey lemon are the winning line of some gamefowl
breeders from Bacolod City, Negross Occidental. As far as I know, one game fowl breeder in
Negros sir Eddie Boy Ledesma of Fire and Ice is one of the breeders of hulsey lemon and hulsey
grey.
The lemon game fowl are old line but still winning line as of today. Some said that one dis
advantage of lemon gamefowl is they are medium stationed but I believed that in cock fighting it
is not on whether high or medium stationed, it is on the bloodline that are winning line and
lemon game fowl is one of the winning bloodline as of today that can compete to modern
gamefowl.

Sidtaylorblacksweatercrossbreeding
It is true that the life of a game fowl breeder is full of challenges. There are many challenges that
you can encounter when you are a game fowl breeder in order to have the best fighting cock
crosses. This breeding season I will try to cross breed the Sid Taylor black to a sweater game
fowl. I like to cross breed sweater to Sid Taylor black because of the fighting style of black that
is known for their speed and cutting ability. The green and white legged blacks fight as multiple
hitting flyers or shuffler, while the black legged ones are known as stylish cutters that can hit
anywhere with offbeat timing . Sid Taylor black also fight as vertical cutting flyers, flying
straight up rather than at an angle.
The sweater game fowl have excellent gameness and power that their relentless attacks simply
overwhelm their opponent. They used to lack endurance, but infusions into their bloodline like
cross breeding it to Sid Taylor black made them the most feared opponents they are today. In the
air they are a match with almost any air fighter but on the ground, they literally trample their
opponents to submission. They have very long feathers, especially at the tail. They are red
breasted and are yellow legged.
Since sweater are used to lack of endurance, it is good to cross breed it with Sid Taylor black
game fowl to produce an all-around battle stag or cock. I noticed that today there lots of game
fowl breeder who breeds black like the famous Mel Sim black. In some major derbies today, the
black game fowl are very popular and they have good winning percentage in the pit.

Nativechickensupplier
I am a small breeder who breeds native chicken and I am a supplier of native chicken in some
of the market in Bacolod City Negros Occidental. There is no problem when it comes to
marketing of native chicken. Chicken aging four to six months old have high demand and
command a good price. Each head may cost P160 for live and P180 for dressed. Middlemen,
market vendors, neighbors , and walk-in individuals are the common buyers of native chicken.
Raising of native chicken is a small business that can be manage even if you have a full-time job.
You do not need to personally take care of them every day. You can find some body who will
watch over them and feed them everyday and just visit them every week. In raising native
chicken, you need to start with choosing the type of breed you want, for example (darag native
chicken, and jolo), and then a place where you are going to breed them, a capital to buy some
materials for the chicken house, fence, feeding materials and water container. In my case I breed
darag native chicken, asil or jolo, and kabir chicken. I cross-breed them in order to produce a
high quality native chicken.
Today the demands of native chicken is good, there are restaurants, resto bars, and other hotels
who are looking for the supplier of native chicken because they need it in one of their menus.
Some of the popular menu for native chicken are native chicken lechon, native chicken barbecue
or inasal, chicken tinola, and native chicken binacol.

PureAsil
Asil chicken for sale in Bacolod City Negross Occidental, Philippines. The Asil or aseel chicken
is originated in India and they breed for cockfighting and some for ornamental, they are called
sometimes in other places of the Philippines as Jolo. The Asil chicken is considered as the
strongest game bird in the world. They are always Pea comb, they can adopt in all types of
climates, and their egg productivity is low. The asil has variety of color that is usually black
breasted, spangled, white, red and wheaten. Asil or aseel chicken are very muscular, their
feathers are hard, short and the feathers also split at the breastbone. The asil or aseel chicken laid
eggs seasonal and not frequent, that is the reason why they are somewhat rare.
I breed asil or aseel chicken because they have high resistance in diseases; they are good source
of meat and eggs.
Asil or aseel are also breed for cock fighting purposes, they are good in terms of endurance, they
can fight up to 1 and hours, they have strong bones, and muscles.
I started to breed asil or aseel with two hens and one roaster, the hens are big and tall, and their
color are black, one hen is yellow legged and the other hen is a green legged. The roaster that I
have is red in color with some white spots in the breast, tall and big in size, the color of the legs
is yellow. If you breed asil for cock fighting, one characteristic that you need to find is that you
are going to make sure that they have a long neck so that they can easily turn left and right when
they are in the actual battle.

AsilKabirCrossbreeding
Every year more than 50 billion chickens are reared as a source of food, for both their eggs and
meat. There are varieties of chicken breeds found around the world but for me, I preferred to
breed Asil (or Aseel) in our native language Jolo and Kabir chicken. My reason for breeding
them is that Asil and kabir chicken are more resistant in stress, heat, and other diseases and their
meat has a good delicious taste. They have good body formation and they grow faster compared
to
other
breeds
of
chicken.
The Asil Kabir cross breeding is common in the Philippines because aside from selling their
meet, you can also sell their eggs. Their meet has a delicious taste like our native chicken
because they grow naturally in a the range, they are free to access the natural resources around,
fresh
grasses,
water,
and
fresh
air.
Breeding Asil and Kabir chicken is profitable because selling their meat and eggs is a good
business. For example you start to breed them in the month of August after 4 months (that is
December) let say your target production is 300 heads, and then by selling it means 300 heads at
150,
then
you
have
a
gross
income
of
45,000.
After disposing your first batch of chicken you can then start to breed again and after 4 months
you will have another batch of chicken to sell. It is up to you if you are going to increase your
production
or
not.
Start your business now by breeding Asil and Kabir chicken and sell their meat and eggs. Poultry
is a good business and it is simple and easy to manage.

Freerangekabirchicken
One of the potential businesses that you can invest in Bacolod City Negross Occidental
Philippines is to raise a free range kabir chicken. In this kind of business you can earn extra
money while at home buy selling their meat and eggs. Manny people love to eat free range
chicken and fresh table eggs because of its good taste. The reasons why free range chicken tastes
so good because they are raised outside on pasture, they have constant access to a natural diet
with
fresh
air
and
sunshine.
You can start in this kind of business by having 100 kabir chicks; you can buy them at 50 pesos
per head. You need to construct a chicken house for your chicks that is elevated from the ground.
The chicken house is equipped with a heater (bulb), feeder, and waterer. The chicks will stay
their for 3 to 4 weeks. After 4 weeks you need to transfer your kabir chicken to an open range so
that they can access fresh air, grass, sunlight, and other minerals found outside.
Make sure that you need also to provide a chicken house while they are in the open range. You
should have a waterer and feeders that is set up inside the chicken house so that they can eat their
feeds
and
drink
water
if
they
need
it.
Outdoor access is important to allow the chicken to express natural behaviors such as foraging
and dust bathing. It allows extensive production in which the chickens have access to open

space,

sunlight,

and

fresh

air,

this

will

help

them

to

reduces

You can breed them during breeding season to produce kabir chicks, and during times that is not
breeding season you can collect their eggs and sell it. The breeding season in the Philippines start
from September to January.

Kabir chicken is one of the good sources of meat and fresh table eggs. It is a breed of chicken
from Middle East, and kabir chicken is considered as the most in demand for backyard and small
enterprise
flocks,
that
is
why
I
breed
them.
As of March 12, 2013 I have 100 heads of kabir chicken that is now producing eggs. I continue
to breed them for meat and eggs. I sold their meat for 150 pesos per kilo and their eggs are sold
for 5 pesos each. I am planning to increase my production this year so that I can cater the
demands
for
kabir
chicken
meat
and
eggs.
I choose to breed kabir chicken because they grow rapidly, they have good body conformation
and efficient feed conversion because they can survive by themselves. Kabir chicken is also
resistant to disease and heat stress. Kabir chicken has a native taste and texture. When you are
going to cross breed them with native chicken and Jolo or asil chickens, the Kabir qualities are
retained in the new breed. The feeding cost is low since kabir chicken can also survive by
themselves. Aside from that kabir chicken can be raised in the same manner as native chickens
and
their
egg
are
low
in
cholesterol.
Kabir chicken is very popular today because aside from the reasons that they are good source of
meat and fresh eggs, you can also earn money by becoming a producer and supplier of their eggs
and meat. You need a small backyard and a small capital to invest in this kind of business and it
is easy to manage.

ChickenAvianMalariaTreatment
Some notes for the treatment of avian malaria. Give 0.2cc sulfaquinoxiline for cocks for the
first dose. Then 0.2cc on water the following dose for another two days. Control if mosquitoes
within the premises and houses with effective insecticides, include spraying the breeding places
of mosquitoes. Proper drainage of stagnant water. Anti malarial drops like plasmochin, quinine
hydrochloride and pyrimethamine combinations were found effective. Confer with the
veterinarians.
Prevention is still better than cure. I don't think Avian malaria sufferers or survivors should be
kept. To prevent Avian Malaria, use a good TMPS medication once a month for 3-5 days straight.
And rid your yard of any stagnant water which is the breeding ground of mosquitoes that spread
Avian Malaria.
Transmission: Bites of mosquitoes, mechanically by blood transfer as in mass vaccination,
caponization and injection. Some signs of avian malaria are severe anemia (paleness) extreme
leg weakness, emancipation and nervous signs like twisting of the head. The shanks and the toes
are dry and birds have ruffled feathers Greenish-yellow or greenish white diarrhea.
A bird that has symptoms from Plasmodium spp infection generally has many parasites
multiplying in the circulating blood within a week of the mosquitos bite. Birds suffer loss of
appetite, fever, weakness, depression, and shortness of breath. Blood circulation to organs may
be impaired, and the liver and spleen may be enlarged, with anemia due to destruction of red
blood cells. In heavy infections death is common.
To prevent avain malaria, every 1st week of the month give PYRISTAT for 2 straight days. On
the 3rd week, TRISULAK powder. Follow the instructions for the dosage and administration of
the mention medicine. The instruction is found at the back of the product package.

Treatmentforcoryzaorpisik
Treatment of coryza for chicks,you need to mix two teaspoon of trisullak powder and one
tablespoon of laktamino XE in two gallon of water for five to seven days. For stags and fighting
cocks, treatment for coryza is to give one trisullak tablet everyday to the infected chicken for
five days and inject 0.5 cc of trisullak injectable three to five days and also give three drops of
laktamino XE (oral) for five days.
Infectious coryza is a specific respiratory disease in chickens that occurs most often in semimature or adult birds. The most characteristic symptoms of infectious coryza include edematous
swelling of the face around the eyes and wattles, nasal discharge and swollen sinuses. Watery
discharge from the eyes frequently results in the lids adhering together. Vision may be affected
because of the swelling. The disease results in a decrease in feed and water consumption and an
increase in the number of cull birds.
Prevention is the only sound approach in controlling infectious coryza. It usually can be
prevented by management programs that eliminate contact between susceptible and infected
birds. It requires only separating affected or carrier birds from the susceptible population. In
order to prevent the infection, introduce started or adult birds only from sources known to be free
of the infection. If infection occurs, complete depopulation followed by thorough
cleaning/disinfecting is the only means for eliminating the disease.
From days old up to fight day, there is a big possibility that fighting cocks can experience several
infections. To increase the production of chicks and healthy broodstags it is important to have
proper care and medication to your chicken to avoid diseases. Chicken especially fighting cocks
are prone to diseases because they are in the open range and because of that they are easily
infected with viruses, bacteria, and fungi usually when there is a rapid climate change. Always
remember that, healthy chicks up to the fight day, has a greater percentage of winning over the
sickly one.

Treatmentforhalak
Below are some notes for treatment of halak or tips on how to treat this kind of chicken
disease. Halak is a complex respiratory disease (CRD) whose root cause is an infection by
Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG). The MG infection is almost always accompanied with another
infection whether, bacterial or viral.
The signs and symptoms are varied, depending on how severe the infection is. Some of the
symptoms are, bubbles in the eyes which can be followed by nasal discharge. Chicken, when
worked, will be short winded, have very little energy and will become blue headed if the disease
is severe. In severe infections the chicken will have a fever and will develop diarrhea or the
greens and will lose weight.

MG is spread by many means. It is passed thru the egg from one generation to the next. The
disease can be carried thru the air for short distances, be carried by wild birds and animals, be
transmitted by direct contact or by sharing feed and water cups, and very importantly, by
yourself on hands, clothing, or shoes.
Tylan is the drug of choice and will control the disease very well. Tylan can be given by injection
or thru the drinking water. LS-50, Spectam, Gallimycin and Tetracycline are also effective.
Other way of treatment for halak is with the use of the following medicine: Ambroxitil - is the
powder version of amtyl 500 and it is use for the treatment of chicks. Doxylak Give 1 tablet
doxylak 100mg daily for 5 days. Terramycin LA injectible 0.5 to be injected in breast muscle,
one shot last for 5 days. Amtyl 500mg 1 tablet daily for 5 days is also effective.

ChickenFeedsforfightingcocks
In breeding chickens, whether it is fighting cocks, layers, or broilers it is important to understand
what type of feeds you are going to put in their feeders. For fighting cocks that are days old to
one month, I feed them chick booster mash. When they are one month old up to five months, I
feed them crumble booster mash. At the age of five months and up, I feed my fighting cocks with

pre-conditioning feeds like Enertone. Different feed is given to them during conditioning and
pointing stage. Usually I used 50% Thunderbird Platinum pellets and 50% Sagupaan concentrate.
During pointing, that is 3-days before the fight, I feed them crack corn and Thunderbird
Platinum Pellets.
The feeds that I used to my layers chicken when they are less than one month old, I feed them
chick booster mash, I changed their feeds to crumble booster mash when they are already more
than one month up to four months old. Their feeds are changed again to laying mash when they
are five months older and up.
For my broiler chicken, I feed chick booster mash from days old up to one month old, and
crumble booster up to the day that they are going to be disposed, usually when they are 45 days
old.
Oriental chickens like, Asil or Jolo, native chickens are feed in different approach. Ordinary
chick booster mash are given to days old chicken, after two weeks, I changed their feeds to
refined crack corn and ordinary crumble booster feeds. When they reach one month old, I feed
them crack corn and pigeon pellets.

Coryzatreatmentmedication
I am a small breeder who breeds chicken (fighting cocks, kabir, orientals). The usual disease of
chicken that I have encounter in my poultry is the infectious coryza and I dont know the
treatment for this kind of disease. The symptoms of this disease are the following, nasal
discharge, sneezing, and swelling of the face under the eyes. I do some inquiries to my friends
who also breed chickens. I asked them on how to treat this coryza disease. One of my friends
tells that I am going to use TRISULAK in order to treat coryza. Immediately, I go to the feeds
supply and ask for TRISULAK and inquire about the dosage for this kind of medicine. The sales
personnel of the feed supply tells me that I am going to give one TRISULAK capsule every day
to infected chicken for three to five days. I follow the advice of the sales personnel, on the first, I
observed that there is an improvement with regards to the health of my chicken who suffer from
coryza, same thing happened on the second day, and on the third day, the sickly chicken is
already treated.
Aside from giving TRISULAK during the period that the chicken suffered from coryza disease, I
also inject the sickly chicken with complexor b-complex with iron vitamins, I give them 0.3ml.
Electrolytes like aquadox are also given through their drinking water. It is also important to keep
your sickly chicken in the cage so that they can hide if there is a rain or to much sunlight.

RaisingKabirChicken

Aside for raising kabir chicken for meet, you can also raise them for eggs. In my own personal
experiences, I raise kabir chicken for eggs and sell it. I have 120 kabir chicken and they lay an
average of 100 eggs per day. In one week, I have 700 eggs to sell. While I am enjoying raising
them, what is good is, I have income coming from their eggs. I am planning to have additional
kabir chichen from 120; I want it to become 200.
In raising kabir chicken, you need to give them proper nutrition and care. In my case I give them
vitamins since they are one day old up to the present. I give them vitamin B-complex and
electrolytes. Regular vaccination is also important. You need also to clean their waterer and
feeders regularly.
A healthy chicken can produce healthy eggs, so make sure that you give proper care, nutrition,
and vitamins to your chicken. Your time is also important, in raising chicken, feeding them is not
enough, and you need to observe them in order to determine the healthy and sickly chicken. I
you identify a sickly chicken, separate them immediately to the group and give proper
medication.
Enough space is also important, In my case I have hectare space with fench for my 200 kabir
chicken. Open space is important so that there is a fresh air for chicken. You need also to
consider the shade so that they can hide if there is rain or there is too much sunlight.

GuidelinesTipsinRaisingChicken
Hopeful chicken producers can feather their nest egg and have the enjoyment of raising their
own chicken by following some common sense guidelines. Do you want to raise chicken for egg
production or meat? Chickens for laying eggs are layers, and those that produce meat are
broilers. Successful poultry producers take care of many details to ensure that their chickens are
comfortable.
Starting with healthy hatchlings and maintaining their health is extremely important. Hatchlings
should be obtained from a reputable hatchery with a history of producing healthy chicken.
Identifying the difference between a healthy chicken and unhealthy chicken is important. A
healthy chicken will be alert, bright eyed, and full breasted, and it will have erect posture, clean
feathers, a bright and full comb and wattles, and clean nostrils. A healthy chicken will drink
plenty of water and eat with frequent eagerness. The stool is grayish in color with a white cap.
An unhealthy chicken will have a decreased appetite and will not drink as much. It will also
appear listless, depress, shrunken, and dull eyed. The stool may be very dry and hard or just the
opposite, very watery and loose. If a chicken appears to be sick, separate the sick chicken from
other. After getting advice from a veterinarian or other professional, follow that advice very
carefully.
Most heath problems can be avoided or kept to a minimum by following these five simple steps:
1.

Layerhenschickenforeggs
Raising hens for eggs is a good source of income. In my case I have 50 Kabir hens that lay eggs.
My 50 kabir hens lays an average of 300 eggs per week. If I have an average of 300 eggs per
week and sold it at 5 pesos then, I have 1500 pesos gross income per week. Aside from kabir
chickens I have also oriental chickens like asil or aseel that also lays egg, and like kabir chickens
their eggs is also a good source of income for me. I also breed fighting cocks, most of the

are

If you have a bit of space on a small farm, you can raise laying hens for farm-fresh eggs of your
own. While the chickens do take a bit of work, you can count on having eggs so fresh that no
supermarket
can
even
come
close.
Some

tips

on

how

to

raise

chicken

for

eggs.

Instructions
1. Decide what breed of chicken you want for your flock. White leghorns are popular laying
chickens,
but
there
are
many
other
varieties
to
choose
as
well.
2. Plan a budget for your egg operation. Feed, water, heating bills and the cost of building
space are just a few of the items to consider. This isn't such a big issue if you are just going to
raise
the
laying
hens
for
your
own
egg
consumption.
3. Build a chicken coop or adapt an existing building. You need at least 3 square feet per layer.
Provide at least one nesting box for every four chickens. Your laying hens also appreciate a place
to
roost.
4. Bring the chickens into their coop. Regardless of whether you bring in chicks or pullets,
don't
expect
eggs
the
very
first
day.
5. Feed the chickens commercially-prepared chicken feed. Also, supply them with fresh water.
Chickens also need grit to help them digest their food. Keep the coop clean at all times.
6. Watch the hens as they begin to lay eggs. Chickens lay eggs in a series, usually at least one
egg every two days. If you don't find and retrieve their eggs from the nest, the chicken sets on the
eggs to hatch them. Since you are raising these chickens for their eggs, you don't want them to
set.
7. Keep track of the chickens that are not laying eggs. Feed is expensive. If the hen isn't doing
her job, she might as well be your Sunday dinner.
