Just thought I would pass on a tip re plucking, nice and easy and no mess. Heat a big pot of water until boiling and chuck in some parrafin wax to melt. Dip the whole duck in ( hold by legs) for a minute or so then straight into a container of really cold water for a couple of minutes. The wax sets onto the feathers and makes it so very easy to pull them out. Good luck for the season!
