Well, there you go. A while back Ariel wanted Moscovies in the worst way but I gently maneuvered her away from them. It was cold then and NO one really wanted to start building a containment/housing for the ducks close to the pond because it would have been very difficult to work in those conditions.
Yesterday evening, I suggested getting a few well bred Moscovies because we all really enjoy the meat plus the weather is almost ideal to build what we need to confine them at the pond. The breasts are great smoked, like ham.
Alright. I'm still the boss here. I will try to find a trio of half grown birds and Jason WILL help me fix what we need to house them and we'll put a couple of his buddies to work for about a week.
Most of you know we're 'preppers' in a fairly concerted way and even with all we have managed to pull together here, The ducks won't hurt to have around.
Done, done and done!
I'd still love to have Muscovies, but we really don't have water here in the desert. They'd probably have to settle for a kiddie pool.
