The continuous crossbreeding of chicken species in the Cosmopolitan Chicken Project (CCP), which is artistic-philosophical in nature has resulted in the birth of chickens that show a remarkably higher genetic diversity. Their immense gene pool consists of a whopping 13 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The Cosmopolitan Chicken Research Project (CC®P) studies them and revealed the genetic enrichment through crossbreeding. A new project, the Community Chicken Project has to prevent inbreeding by injecting the genetic diversity into other species. The layout of the plan is like this: every year a rooster of the newest crossbreed will be paired with a regular egg laying chicken. This chicken will absorb the genetic pool of the CCP rooster and produce a vital community chicken who can provide the communities it lives in with healthy eggs. The time is now. The growing popularity of chickens is a fact, but at the same time the food insecurity increases. Even in richer countries the sudden halt of food supplies through calamities, wars, riots or climate change can lead to much misery. The need for food security and food independency of traditional industrial supply has played a pivotal role in the growing resurgence of small-scale agriculture, from raising homegrown vegetables to homebred animals.

  • Performance and Meat Quality of Dual-Purpose Cockerels of Dominant Genotype Reared on Pasture
    animals Article Performance and Meat Quality of Dual-Purpose Cockerels of Dominant Genotype Reared on Pasture Michaela Englmaierová * , Miloš Skˇrivan,Tomáš Taubner and VˇeraSkˇrivanová Department of Nutrition Physiology and Animal Product Quality, Institute of Animal Science, 104 00 Prague-Uhrineves, Czech Republic; [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (T.T.); [email protected] (V.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +420-267-009-547 Received: 31 January 2020; Accepted: 24 February 2020; Published: 27 February 2020 Simple Summary: One-day-old laying cockerels are killed after hatching because they do not reach the growth rate of broiler chickens, and their fattening would be economically disadvantageous. A possible variant of the use of these cockerels could be organic or free-range farming, where it is desirable that the animals are fattened for a longer period of time, are more physically active, and graze pasture vegetation. Another possibility is dual-purpose genotype breeding, where hens are used for egg production and cockerels are fattened for meat. In the present study, three genotypes of dual-purpose cockerels Dominant were compared. All three genotypes showed the ability to graze with resulting improvements in meat quality. The Dominant 102 cockerels have the greatest prerequisites for use in extensive fattening, mainly due to higher performance, willingness to graze and vitamin E content, which protects the fat from becoming rancid. Abstract: The culling of layer cockerels due to economic inefficiency is an ethical problem. Organic or free-range fattening of these cockerels or dual-purpose genotypes breeding is a possible solution to this problem.
