− | A small, domesticated waterfowl, '''Ducks''' | + | A small, domesticated waterfowl, '''Ducks''' are not found in the wild, and can only be purchased from traders or received in self-taming events. Ducks mature quickly, making them good meal birds, but lay [[Duck egg (unfert.)|eggs]] relatively slowly. Males of the species can be distinguished by their green heads and two-tone body while females have a solid colour head and body with darker wings. |
− | == | + | ==Analysis== |
− | + | Ducks are generally inferior to [[chicken]]s. They are nearly identical - wildness, meat yield, life cycles and combat efficacy are all similar, however a duck produces an egg every 3.5 days while a chicken produces one every 2 days. | |
− | + | ==Livestock== | |
+ | {{Rewrite|reason=Outdated numbers - should be automated to draw numbers from the infobox}} | ||
+ | A Duck takes 3.5 to gestate in a fertilzed [[Duck egg (fert.)|egg]], 7.2 days to become a juvenile, and a total of 18 days to reach adulthood. | ||
− | + | Ducks will regularly lay eggs if female, even if unfertilized, like [[chicken]]s but unlike most other egg-laying livestock. Each egg has enough nutrition to replace the meat component in a fine meal. If you also have a male duck, he may fertilize eggs before the female lays them. These eggs will then hatch into a duckling, so long as it is left alone and does not experience extreme temperatures (Less than 0C, greater than 50C). Unfertilized eggs will never hatch. There is no difference between a fertilized and an unfertilized egg for the purpose of cooking. Ducks provide fewer eggs per day than chickens and have | |
− | Ducks | ||
− | + | When slaughtered, a duck yields 5 meat as a duckling; 16 as a juvenile; or 22 as an adult. No leather is yielded. It's worth noting that allowing an egg to hatch and immediately slaughtering it for meat provides the exact same amount of nutrition as simply eating the egg. As a general rule this would mean that its still better to eat the egg as you don't need to wait until its hatched, the egg will last slightly longer in storage (important if you live somewhere with regular heat waves) and you don't need to generate a butchering job, unless you plan on making pemmican which requires meat exclusively. | |

− | == Training == | + | Therefore, when slaughtered as juveniles, ducks have a nutrition efficiency (nutrition out for nutrition in) of 28.1%. This makes them the 10th most efficient animal to farm for meat; more efficient than [[capybara]]s, but less efficient than [[pig]]s and [[wild boar]]s. |
