Duck Picking in BR/Ascension Area

I'll do it for $20 a bird.

That sounds like a good deal to me.

if i don't just fillet the breast meat out, i've found that plucking the breast only and pulling the whole breast off is a good middle ground


does away with all of the pain in the arse plucking, but you still get some skin/fat which will be better for making a gravy, etc.


it helps that we don't kill a lot of big ducks, so i dont feel like i'm losing out on much by doing it this way

Not opposed to doing it myself,

Then do it

You kill it, you clean it. if you dont want to clean it, dont kill it.

Got a guy who will clean and bag for $1.25 per bird and even wash your kia for you after if you like.

I need me one like that.

Oh geez. It appears I've angered the interwebs.

I was thinking someone had one of these LINK and could do it pretty quick for, I don't know, $5.

Shake the haters bro. If I knew someone that would pick ducks for me, I'd pay them for sure.

Doing so gets you a nap in before the ball games start.

I quit plucking when PaPa passed, he would whip my arse if he saw all the legs I've thrown away. He always had me a tub of wax to work with so it wasn't that bad. But it was back in the day when you could only kill three.

if you hunt every day and kill lots of birds, it would be worth the effort to find someone. Surely there's some old lady in the country near Gonzales who wants some extra money. Make sure i get my gizzards tho. Otherwise, I just do it myself.

Not a bad idea. I'd consider it, like you said, depending on the size.
