Stew will be made with Muscovy duck drake meat specifically. The meat very lean and will taste a bit gamey.

      He wasn’t innocent. He was a violent bastard that injured my other birds. I kept him for far too long hoping he’d settle down, but it only got worse. Final straw was him paralyzing my tiny mallard drake and ripping his back open. Almost had to put the mallard down due to the injuries.

      I know I may sound cruel, but I’m a backyard farmer. I grew up on farms. This kinda stuff is normal to me. My flock is better off without a bully. It’s my job to care for these birds and ensure their well-being. Sacrificing one for the many is part of that.

        Ah, I thought you were kidding at first, but it sounds like he was a real sonofabitch. I hope he is tasty.

          Yeah, nah. He was the worst. I thought his issue was that there weren’t enough girls for the amount of boys I had, so I got a fuck ton more girls, but he was still an asshole.

        Too bad you keep animals in cages for your benefit then blame them when they act out.

        Yeah pointing out the suffering you deliberately cause does make one upset.
