ties. The standard weight of the
drake is pounds and of the mature
duck Z pounds. The Pekins are, very
large, and frequently pairs will be
found that will weigh 20 pounds. Their
flesh is very delicate and free from
grossness, and they are among the
best of table fowls. They are very
good layers and average from 100 to
1875 eggs per season. They do not gen.
orally sit, and their young are hardy
and easily raised.
