i have lost both the mates

would you pair her back to her son

would you just try a new mate

pair the son to a half sister

pair the son to its own sister

why not pair her best son back to her as then you have the winning genes already there !!!!

pair her to anew top rated cock this breeding season take a cock and a hen from her two sons breefrom them in 2010 take a cock from that pair and put back to the hen ie grt grt grandson

outher than that get a cousin to the hen from a brother to her sire only

 

oh happy days

if you wanted to breed birds to race,, pair her with your best cock,,,,if you wanted to breed birds for stock purposes ,,pair to her son

I would look for another cock from the same line(s) to pair to your hen, preferably one that has thrown the goods with other hens, or another cock that has thrown the goods with other hens.

 

I would also pair winning son with winning half-sister.
