Meat for Ducklings Findings at the New York Experiment Station
A ten week trial fed four duckling lots of twenty eight birds each with varied animal food proportions from 20 to 80 percent. Early feeding of animal proteins boosted growth and reduced costs, with 60 percent animal content most effective for rapid early growth and market-ready weight, though later years favored cheaper grains. The study notes timing, costs, and the reliance on bone ash as a mineral source, pending price and demand.
