Duck Processing – Update

We did some experiments with waterfowl last November with rather mixed results. The ducks were of unknown age and some were very difficult to pluck, so we were not happy with the results. We are trying again this coming week with Pekin ducks, bred primarily for meat, and they will be at the ideal processing age. If this goes well and we are happy with the quality we will announce that on the website and will start processing young meat ducks. The price will be based on how long it takes to process them, and is likely to be more than for chickens.
