How does a fish reproduse?

Fish breed in different ways. There are two main strategies that fish use: egglaying and livebearing. Livebearing female fish are internally fertilized by the male fish, and carry the fry for about a month before delivering them. Egglaying fish lay eggs instead of giving birth to little fish.Egglayers have many methods of laying eggs. For example, substrate spawners lay eggs in protected areas such as plants, rocks, wood. Mouthbrooders actually keep their eggs in their mouths until the eggs hatch.


What bird lays an all blue egg?

There are two 'purebred' breeds that lay blue eggs. Those are the Araucana and the Ameraucana.Note that the standard for Araucanas differs in Europe from the American standard (they are similar to Ameraucanas of American standard, but have smallish feathery head crests unlike them. They were developed in northern Scotland from Araucanas/'Easter Eggers' stranded there from a merchant ship from South America which grounded on the coast in the 1930s).Cream/Crested Legbars, one the 'Autosexing Breeds', also lay blue eggs.However, EasterEggers (a mutt chicken with a blue egglaying ancestor), can lay blue or green eggs, but do not meet the standards of the Araucana or Ameraucana.

What does Ornamental chicken mean?

Ornamental refers to the chickens use. In this case, they are "ornamental". They are not suited for the purpose of meat, egglaying, or both (dual purpose). They are typically very beautiful and fancy, whether that mean feather-footed, crested, extra toes, muffs, beards, long tails, etc. Due to being bred for show, they are often finicky, frail, or otherwise "dainty" birds. The breeds considered ornamental were once used for meat/eggs, but were continually bred for confirmation and not use - and such, lost their other qualities in favor of show ranking.
