Fish-Eating Ducks Best Egg Producers Say Scientists

In Paris the French academy of sciences heard M. Edmond Perrier report on M. A. Magnan’s duck feeding trial. Ten ducklings per group fed on meat fish and vegetables showed fish eaters laying earliest at seven and a half months and producing more eggs, with fifty four eggs per duck between December 17 and May 14. Meat eaters averaged forty five eggs, vegetarians nineteen, while meat ducks laid heavier eggs and fish ducks produced better eating eggs. The color of the shells varied and Magnan noted differences in egg quality and color across groups.
