A short story about Muscovy duck

During my final year in the university, my project topic was growth traits in poultry birds (Muscovy duck). During the course of the project, were asked to contribute some amount of money which was used to get some instruments such as weighing scale, measuring tape/tape rule, stethoscope, a mathematical set and also to purchase the Muscovy duck itself.

It was a very interesting experience, before we purchased the Muscovy duck we wanted to use for the project, we moved around the neighborhood, seeking for those rearing Muscovy ducks to collect samples such as the breast girth, the heartbeat rate, the shank length, beak length, wing length and so on. The purpose of the project is to know how growth traits amd environment factors affect production and rearing of ducks in the area.
