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?
