In a single hatching, a duck may have from 5 to 14 ducklings (or slightly more) depending on the species. Mallards and American Black Ducks have an average of 9 to 11 eggs in one group.
Female ducks may hatch several annual groups over their lifetime.
Ducks generally mate during the spring and warm months of the year. How often depends on the climate they live in. The male duck has genitalia will disappear in the fall, and reappear in the spring.
Ducks lay about 2 to 8 eggs but not all survive.
yes, they can have up to 10.

Yes, but ducks mate with ducks and turkeys mate with turkeys. In rare cases, a turkey may hatch from an unfertilized egg, a process called parthenogenesis.
Ducks don't "mate". They are not monogamous.
Moscovy ducks are capable of breeding and producing offspring. If crossed with other ducks however they will produce sterile offspring, like a mule. the cross between a horse and donkey or a zebra crossed with a horse. If you go to a local pond and watch in the spring you will see them buzzing around with whole troops of ducklings. That means the males posses the aparatus to mate with as you inquired.
I guess if they want to, I do not see why not. Most likely your white ducks are Pekins. They will not usually breed and have viable offspring if you try to mate with a madrin. Mandrins are more closely related to wood ducks.
Yes, but like people, time heals and they are able to find another mate.

Rarely any mate for life. The Mandarin and the Wood ducks are among the two most popular known ducks to actually mate for life, but most of the other ducks don't.
Ducks don't "mate". They are not monogamous.
Nothing. Ducks are not tamable, however you can mate two ducks by using wheat and right clicking on two near-by ducks within 30 seconds.
A duck's mate is called a drake. The duck is female, the drake, male.

No, the eggs are not viable until fertilization. So, like chickens, the goose will lay an egg whether fertile or not. Now, if you want to RAISE ducks from hatchlings, then yes, you want your ducks to mate regularly so as to ensure success in fertilizing.
Nobody really knows. But I yhink no as it means less competition for them when trying to mate with females. If you'd like to think so, go ahead.
Yes, quite often....
