Genetics and Reproduction

Avian Maidens are all females. They reproduce through parthenogenesis, the act of reproducing without fertilization, by laying eggs with the same genetic makeup as themselves. Although a partner is not required for reproduction, the majority of Avian Maidens seek romantic partners among themselves before laying eggs. An Avian Maiden will often seek its own kind when it comes to choosing a partner, but couples of different kinds may form as well. The methods of raising a chick varies greatly, some raising a single chick or a cluster of chicks together, or a single Avian Maiden raising her chick by herself even if she has a partner.
