It is a long process and can take years. You need to have a plan detailing those traits you wish to attain or remove from you breeding stock.
Begin with the best birds that you can get. It's easier to start with quality chickens than to breed unwanted traits out of a poor quality grandparent flock of birds.
Keep accurate records to control mating. Identify and mark the best of the birds with the qualities desired. Never keep chickens with unwanted traits, cull or separate those without those desired traits.
