So...
When you look at ducks for sale or what people say about breeds, or look at genetics different breeds will say averages X number of eggs per year.
Example, Khaki Campbell... ToNs of EgGs.
Peking.... Tons of eggs - Y
Caguya...Tons of eggs - Y - Z
Well enough with the math.
What I'm wondering about is how long you will retain those figures in child and parent generations passing?
Like, example.... you go buy 5 khaki campbells...and then you raise them. Let's say they really do give 300 eggs a year. Then you raise their ducklings to adults and those...would probably also give you the same numbers of eggs right?
But how many generations after the first set, would you still get those egg numbers (particularly the higher ones) without having to introduce new fresh genetics outside of your own drakes?
One would hope you'd get a few generations at least before needing new DNA.
