Table 4. Details of the second phase of the breeding experiment including the numbers of F1 individuals and WHITE Bielefeld individuals of each sex that were pair-wise housed in cages with the opportunity to breed.

Sex F1 Birds WHITE Bielefeld Pairs Resulting number of offspring (broods)
Male 12 12 12 51 (14)
Female 9 9 9 54 (11)
Total 105 (25)

The number of broods can exceed the number of pairs because each pair was allowed to maximally reproduce twice.
