Full Description
Aylesbury ducks are a dual purpose bird which means that they can be used for both meat and egg laying purposes.
Off Heat Ducklings are between 3 to 4 weeks old at the time of sale.
They can be processed for meat when 7-8 weeks old. Between weeks 9-14 they get a new set of feathers and plucking is difficult.
From weeks 14-17 heavier weights are achieved with males achieving weights of 10-12 lbs and heavier and females from 9-11 lbs.
After week 17 birds move to a reproduction mode and with good management, egg laying will commence by week 30.
