S2: E17 Farm updates, Line Breeding, & Terminal Sires

Liv and Rachel sit down and share updates from both their homesteads. We then discuss the differences between line breeding in your flock, how that is similar or different to inbreeding, why and when to use a terminal sire, and the necessity of culling hard in your flock. We also discuss the mindset shift to being willing to butcher culls and excess rams briefly.
