@416bigbore How are your chick's doing today?

From the looks of everything, every one seems to be doing great.

Most definitely, always up for home grown yard bird!

Yard bird = duck lately. Bad Boyz the next gen.

We already ate the skinned one, just BBQ with Cattle man sauce like a steak. Duck is a dark meat. I use indirect heat, one burner with a pan of water above, the bird on the grill to the side. ~325 degrees.

The only reason to raise ducks is to eat ducks!

Just my humble opinion!

Duck is awesome, I like them smoked just like wild turkey because they are all dark meat also. Once we start growing our flock, there will be some extra meat poultry as we go.

Our flock is doing just great, in spite of the horrible heat. Our big Naked neck was taking a sun bath this morning when it was only 85.
Luckily, our well is still pumping out nice cool water for the ducks. Our latest chicks are hot, I am putting ice in their water.

I would smoke them if I had more of them. Maybe next year I will get a smoker. LOVE smoked meat!!
