In this study, which was part of a complex duck experiment, domestic (Pekin type), muscovy and mule ducks were used to determine the slaughtering waste from 7 to 12 weeks of age. The animals were kept under intensive conditions until 6 weeks of age and under semi-intensive conditions thereafter. Their were fed ad libitum, with a commercial pelleted feed for Pekin duck during the whole experimental period. Eight birds of each genotype and sex were slaughtered weekly during the period.
