What do honey bee genetics mean for the everyday beekeeper—and how do researchers untangle traits like foraging behavior, hygienic tendencies, and even pollen hoarding? In this episode, Jeff and Becky sit down with Dr. Rob Page, one of the world's leading experts in honey bee genetics and author of the newly updated Honey Bee Genetics and The Art of the Bee. Rob shares stories from his early influences, including his time with Harry Laidlaw and the legacy of Walter Rothenbuhler, and how his fascination with bee behavior grew into a groundbreaking career in genetic research. They also discuss Rob's engaging new textbook, why he pivoted away from queen rearing content, and the importance of mentorship and collaboration in science. For beekeepers interested in breeding better bees, Rob emphasizes the power of careful observation, good recordkeeping, and realistic expectations. Listeners will also hear about Rob's video lecture series based on his book The Art of the Bee, created to make bee biology and genetics accessible to students and enthusiasts alike. Whether you're raising local queens or just curious about what makes a colony tick, this conversation is a rare chance to learn from a pioneer whose research continues to shape modern beekeeping.

A good mentor is like a guiding light, illuminating the path ahead with knowledge and experience. They help their mentees grow, develop and reach their full potential. On the other hand, a bad mentor usually lacks the proper education and knowledge, which can skew their personal experiences, rendering their advice useless. This leaves the mentee feeling frustrated and lost. When we compare the two mentors, one tends to provide conflicting advice, which can confuse or even undermine their mentees' confidence. While the other is based on science and common sense. Every step forward should be a validation that they are on the right path.

Breeding waterfowl surveys do not predict mid-winter and migration surveys. Non-breeding season surveys have very specific objectives. They should not be compared to breeding waterfowl survey numbers. DrMike details why the USFWS breeding waterfowl and mid-winter surveys are Apples and Oranges…they are not comparable. DrMike goes off again! “I don't have ducks, but they predicted ducks”…TEARS. BooHoo……NOoooo, JUST, NO!. Nobody predicted ducks in front of your blind. Just get out and hunt ducks when the weather is right, just get out and hunt when The FowlWeather Podcast predicts fresh ducks. Learn more about the purpose of migration and mid-winter waterfowl surveys today on The FowlWeather Podcast.

Have you ever been tempted to make a snap decision about a breeding cat after spotting a fault or issue? You're not alone—but sometimes it's better to pause, breathe, and take a moment to think things through. In this episode, we'll discuss why it's important to avoid knee-jerk reactions, especially when it comes to desexing cats with potential. I'll share tips for evaluating issues calmly, understanding when a fault might not be the end of the world, and making thoughtful decisions for your breeding program. Take a moment with me and let's talk about how patience can lead to better outcomes for you and your cats.

Dusty Baker of Cross Timbers Bison joins us on the Grazing Grass Podcast to share his journey from city life to raising bison full time in Sulphur, Oklahoma. With a background in wildlife ecology and a deep appreciation for the nearby Chickasaw National Recreation Area, Dusty took the leap into bison ranching during the pandemic, starting out on an old dairy farm. Since then, he's poured his passion into building a thriving herd and managing his land with regenerative practices that benefit both the soil and the animals.In this episode, we dig into:Dusty's transition from city life to bison ranchingHow he adapted a former dairy into a working bison operationThe challenges of fencing and handling these powerful animalsHis approach to regenerative grazing and land stewardshipThoughts on bison genetics and today's bison meat marketLessons learned from experimenting with multi-species grazingStraightforward advice for anyone looking to get into bison ranchingIf you're curious about bison, regenerative grazing, or just love hearing a good ranching story, you won't want to miss this one. Dusty's experience offers practical tips and a real-world look at the ups and downs of raising these incredible animals.Links Mentioned in the EpisodeCross Timbers Bison Ranch Cross Timbers Bison on YouTubeThis is Oklahoma Podcast with Dusty BakerVisit our Sponsors:Noble Research InstituteRedmondGBT AngusGrazing Grass LinksNew Listener Resource GuideProvide feedback for the podcastWebsiteInsidersResources (Coming Soon)Community (on Facebook)Check out the Apiary Chronicles PodcastOriginal Music by Louis PalfreyChapters(00:00) - Introduction and FAST Five (00:23) - Welcome to the Grazing Grass Podcast (02:01) - Farm Updates and Teeter Farm Tech Gates (03:06) - Web Tinkering and Community Projects (05:24) - Interview with Dusty Baker Begins (05:47) - Dusty's Journey with Bison (16:57) - Challenges and Learnings in Bison Farming (21:59) - Transition to Full-Time Farming During COVID (29:29) - Starting a YouTube Channel (35:25) - Regenerative Practices on a Bison Ranch (45:05) - Transition to Overgrazing (45:59) - Redmond Agriculture Ad (46:56) - Getting Started with Bison (47:49) - Fencing and Keeping Bison Happy (50:25) - Bison Genetics and Breeding (57:32) - Bison Meat Market and Business (01:00:21) - Challenges with Multi-Species Grazing (01:11:34) - Cooking Bison Meat (01:14:00) - Famous Four Questions (01:25:48) - Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Dr. Kevin McPhee is a pulse crop breeder at Montana State University. He's been there for just over eight years after building a similar program in pulse crop breeding at North Dakota State University. Prior to that, he was working on pulse crops with the USDA ARS based in Pullman, Washington. Together we discuss the pulse crop breeding program in Montana, including their goals for the program in pea, chickpea and lentils. He describes varieties they've released and what's in the pipeline that growers might want to know about for the future. “  What really separates the winter peas from the spring peas and gives them the advantage is when we have a dry year and there isn't the in-season moisture rains for the spring crop. With the winter peas already in the ground…they don't have to worry about planting them in the spring. That's one big advantage. And then they can take advantage of all of the winter moisture that's in the soil and any of the spring rains that occur. They flower a month ahead of the spring types. So they're well on their way before we get into the heat of the summer and the potential dry conditions, and that's where they shine.” - Dr. Kevin McPheeThis Week on Growing Pulse Crops:Meet Dr. Kevin McPhee, a pulse crop breeder at Montana State UniversityDiscover new pulse crop varieties that are being introduced and the benefits they offer producersExplore major advantages offered by winter peas that may benefit producers looking to be more water efficientGrowing Pulse Crops is produced by Dr. Audrey Kalil and hosted by Tim Hammerich of the Future of Agriculture Podcast.

Daniel Solis of Oropel Lodge discusses his experiences surrounding nature in South America, as well as reptile keeping and breeding in the past in this episode. Daniel thoroughly talks about his dilemma with keeping reptiles in captivity, whilst appreciating wildlife as they are in the wild.

Our continuing theme throughout this series has been, “Are You a True Breeder or a Multiplier?” There are many benefits in becoming a true breeder, and we discussed this in the last episode, however, not everybody can become a true breeder, due to what it takes to make that happen. So, what are the obstacles?  The list is long, but here are some of the points we will address: ·      How do we find the right information?  ·      How do we find the right Mentor?  ·      And, how do we find the right Seed Fowl?  Information, especially good information, is harder to find than ever before, even though we have the internet. Finding mentors who know what they are talking about is getting harder, because most are stuck on old wives' tales. And, Seed Fowl are getting harder to find, because most birds don't represent their breed, and are nothing more than mongrels. And then there are the peddlers.  The sad truth is that there are very few true breeders today. In fact, there are more peddlers than there are true breeders. They use medications to hide weakness to disease, they play the name game and percentage game, and they say they have pure fowl, but only sell crosses. What are we to do, when there seems to be so many obstacles in our way to becoming a true breeder? That is exactly what we will be talking about in this episode. Make sure to join us, this is a show you do not want to miss.  Make sure to follow and watch our future shows. We plan to dive deep into the world of breeding and genetics, nutrition and health management, and provide essential tips, so you too can create high quality strains.  Whether you're breeding domestic chickens, gamefowl, or various types of livestock, this show is for you.  Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, Friday's at 6pm PST or 9pm EST on YouTube, as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain.

Raising kittens is often seen as an expensive process, but what if I told you that you're not really “losing” money? In this episode, we'll shift the way you think about the costs involved in breeding by showing you that, in reality, you're prepaying expenses for your future kitten owners. I'll explain how the costs of food, health checks, vaccinations, and supplies are actually an investment that's reimbursed when your kittens go to their new homes. This mindset shift can help reduce the stress around financials and make the whole breeding process feel more manageable. Tune in to change your perspective and understand how these “costs” are actually part of your successful breeding program!

Challenging Evolutionary Theory: A Biblical PerspectiveThe recent Reformed Rookie podcast tackled the contentious issue of evolution vs. creation, presenting a compelling case for a literal interpretation of Genesis. The discussion highlighted several key arguments against macroevolution, emphasizing the limitations of current evolutionary theory and the overwhelming evidence supporting special creation.Key takeaways from the podcast include:The inadequacy of the evolutionary model: The podcast systematically dismantles the "goo to you via the zoo" narrative, citing the lack of observable, repeatable evidence for macroevolution (large-scale changes leading to new kinds of organisms). The scientific method itself is questioned in its application to this theory.Irreducible complexity: The podcast uses the analogy of a bicycle to illustrate irreducible complexity – a system where removing a single part renders the whole system non-functional. This concept is applied to the complexity of the cell and the human body, posing a significant challenge to the gradual evolution of such intricate systems.Genetic limits: Breeding experiments demonstrate that while microevolution (small-scale changes within a kind) occurs, it's limited. No new genetic information is added; existing information is merely rearranged or lost.The fossil record: The podcast exposes several evolutionary hoaxes and highlights the scarcity of transitional forms in the fossil record, contradicting the predictions of Darwinian evolution. The discussion also touches upon the questionable interpretations of existing fossil evidence.The philosophical implications: The podcast delves into the philosophical underpinnings of evolutionary theory, questioning its materialistic presuppositions and their impact on our understanding of morality, logic, and purpose.The podcast also introduces the "MILC" acronym (Macroevolution, Irreducible Complexity, Genetic Limits, Cyclical Change) as a helpful tool for engaging in discussions about evolution. It encourages critical thinking and a reliance on God's word as the ultimate source of truth.This podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in a thoughtful and well-researched exploration of this crucial topic. Let's engage in a respectful discussion – what are your thoughts on the arguments presented? #evolution #creation #science #faith #christianity #podcast #genesis #biology #philosophy #creationism #evolutiondebate #intelligentdesign #GodVsEvolution #scientificevidence #biblicalcreation #Macroevolution #darwinism Podcast: www.ReformedRookie.comPodcast: https://anchor.fm/reformedrookieFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReformedRookie Twitter: https://twitter.com/NYapologistSemper Reformanda!

 In this episode, Brad dives into the topic of polled genetics — cattle that are naturally hornless — and why it's becoming more important in both the dairy and beef industries. He explains what polled genetics are, how the trait is inherited, and how farmers can use homozygous or heterozygous polled bulls to reduce the need for dehorning. Brad discusses the growing emphasis on polled genetics by organizations like Organic Valley, highlights some top polled bulls across major dairy breeds, and shares his own experience integrating polled genetics into his herd. He also touches on the challenges of finding polled bulls and the slow but steady transition toward more humane animal management practices. Brad wraps up by encouraging farmers to consider polled genetics as a way to reduce labor, improve animal welfare, and align with consumer expectations.

Have you ever wondered if you have what it takes to become a true breeder? Or, whether you are a true breeder right now? This can be subjective, depending on who you talk to.  The truth is, there is a big difference between a true breeder and someone who breeds. Some breeders select based on performance alone, while some look for the prettiest birds. However, it's the breeders who embrace all areas of breeding, and select for the complete package that are the most successful.  As breeders, we must be willing to learn all areas of breeding, which includes the sciences that so many dread. I say embrace science. Learn why genetics and the laws of inheritance matters, and why evolutionary biology not only relates to how we breed our fowl, but aids us in breeding and creating better breeds and strains.  By knowing the science of selective breeding, we can produce higher quality strains that will last for future generations. Join us as we discuss this controversial topic, and you can decide for yourself. Make sure to follow and watch our future shows. We plan to dive deep into the world of breeding and genetics, nutrition and health management, and provide essential tips, so you too can create high quality strains.  Whether you're breeding domestic chickens, gamefowl, or various types of livestock, this show is for you.  Join us on Bred to Perfection Live, Friday's at 6pm PST or 9pm EST on YouTube, as we discuss the benefits of creating your own strain.
