Clan breeding is a rotational inbreeding system for rabbits (and sometimes poultry or livestock) designed to:
Keep a closed herd (no constant outside purchases).
Maintain genetic diversity over time.
Avoid severe inbreeding depression.
It’s usually done with three or more “clans” (lines/families) that you rotate bucks through.
