But the most material thing in breeding all animals, and to whichwe pay the least regard, either in the race of men or Horses, isthe choice of the female, who not only joins in the production ofthe foetus, but in the formation of it also. And that the femaleha
...s even the greatest share in the production of the foetus, willbe proved by this instance: if you take a dunghill cock and put toa game hen, and also put a brother of that game hen to a sister ofthe dunghill cock, those chickens bred from the game hen will befound much superior to those chickens bred from the dunghill hen.
