Home             Peking Ducks

 

Peking Ducks were originally brought from china into England and the United-states. Their Bills and legs are a deep orange color. They like being in a group, they grow very fast and can weigh 5ib in 8 weeks! The Duck also stands upright most of the time. Its purpose was egg laying and a good source of meat. Their feathers are white and are very soft. Their adult weight is 8ib so they are smaller than Muscovy.

Facts:

The idea of Donald Duck came from a Peking Duck!
One Peking Duck has been known to lay 135 eggs!
When they are crossed between a Muscovy Duck they are called a Mule Duck and are sterile.
It was once considered the most valuable duck!
Its egg color is white.

 

My Findings:

As Birdy is a Peking Duck here are some of my Findings:

Birdy follows Ducky everywhere( probably because when he was young he got nasty beating's from Ducky).

Birdy's fighting style is very different from Ducky's, Ducky's is more of a full on try to pluck out every single feather! Where was Birdy goes for Ducky's little patch of Feathers on his head and brings him down that way, Keeping him down by the head until he gives up.

Birdy is afraid of moving things bigger then him.

Birdy loves water and stay's in the pond almost all day.

Like Ducky Birdy has a particular tune as well( which you can also hear in the audio section).
