Duck for Dinner

[Bethanial]

Hi! Thanks for the welcome. I *read* here all the time, but never got around to registering and posting.
Bethanial, I grew up in GA and most of my family is still down in Tattnall and Evans Co.'s. I live just across the line in Aiken, SC now and should have plenty of Muscovy ducklings (the girls aren't laying yet but the boys are mating) or eggs if you'd like to hatch your own. I have a chocolate pair, a blue / black pair, and a trio of blue fawn. I'll be setting their eggs as soon as they start laying well.
I was hoping to have extra Muscovy drakes (to butcher) from the 11 summer ducklings, but I sent 2 pair to my pal Deb, so she could get her own meat flock going.

I know where those places are!!!! Aiken's about 2-1/2 hrs from me (lived in SC for a while - ex in military and stationed in Sumter for 5 yrs, had to drive through it to get back home).

Definitely second the

I'll be PM'ing you in a bit with more questions, and guess I need to really go read up on ducks over at BYC!

Can anyone share a roasted muscovey duck recipe...? Its my understanding they have less fat than a pekin duck and one has to be careful, because they can get dry fast?
I didn't see this thread until i started one asking the same question..! lol
