I have some extra indian runner drakes hatched this year that I want to process.
Has anyone ever killed a duck using the broomstick method? This is how I always kill chickens and I can do it quickly and competently. I would not attempt this with a larger duck, but think it would work for a runner. The idea of using a hatchet makes me SO nervous. The last thing I want to do is botch it. Thoughts?
Also has anyone canned duck? I'm thinking of putting these guys up as shredded duck meat for sandwiches, tacos etc.
Thanks!
