Do you have any estimate of the time you did boil the bones?

He said that it was about 4 to 4.5 hours total but did it over several days.

I bet ya getting the heads beetled would be a lot easier than boiling them. I might do it next year or this year if I get a fall bird. Looks pretty sweet.
I had a small colony and did duck heads all the time.  They make quick work of it.

Oh, I want a colony but I believe my wife draws the line on that one!  She already complains enough about the animal carcasses, skins, and bones in my shed, not to mention the amount of hours I spend in the woods.  Got to keep the wife happy!

I have a question about using beetles on turkey heads.  Has anyone on here tried it, and if so, what were the results?  I was wondering if the beetles would eat at the turkey's beak (and the spurs on the legs).  Maybe Blackmagic can help me out with that one; did the beetles gnaw at your duck beaks?
