So - what are some good idea's of how to prepare them? He said they have been field dressed, but still have feathers, head and feet.
Thanks in advance!

What kind of Ducks?
How many?
Just don't stuff them with cream cheese, jalapenos, red onion, and wrap in bacon after marinading them in Italian dressing. If you want to do that just save the effort and buy chicken thighs to make poppers.
You can smoke em, smother em, or make a gumbo.
Depending on what kind of ducks and how many will determine what range of stuff you can do.

Doesn't sound like much of a friend if he field dressed them and still have feathers. Sounds like one big fricking mess.

Since to don't know what kind they are or where they're from, skin'em and make a gumbo
Usually even trash ducks are ok in gumbo

Can you take a pic and upload it when you get the ducks. I'm curious to see how someone field dressed them without plucking them.

Duck stews are always good.

I'd tell him to keep them. Seriously. That's like someone showing up to your house with a mess of fish that aren't cleaned.
And if I did take them I'd breast every one of them, because you are going to destroy the skin.
Considering the way he's giving them to you, I'm willing to bet two of the names are Spoonbill and Hooded Merganser...

He cut the abdomen and gutted them. Stupid since it's almost impossible to pluck them now without tearing the skin off.

Google Emeril's duck and andouille gumbo. Best use for ducks especially if you dont know what they are. Great recipe.

Is your friend Asian?

The most interesting man in the world would make a turducken... with a duck inside a turkey inside a chicken back inside the original duck.
