Jumbo Pekin Duck

$17.00

Category:

The Jumbo Pekin is our largest strain of Pekin. Commercial Pekin ducks are produced by crossing a male from a large, meaty strain of Pekin with a female Pekin from a medium-sized, highly fertile good egg-producing strain. With this cross, you get a large number of ducklings from the female that grow into good-sized birds because of the size of the male.  For exhibition they are excellent for Meat Pens, but do not have the special conformation necessary for show Pekins
