Duck duck I want a goose !

[Harry Collins]

I bard a goose in bacon with a half an orange, a stick of butter, and an onion with about 12 cloves stuck up their vent. Breast side down in hard cider with a tent of foil. At some point you roll the bird over and at another point you remove the foil to let the bacon brown. Taste like roast beef. I'll post the recipe if anyone wants it.

Harry- please do so. Thanks. Jeff

Turkeys eating carrion? Never such a thing

[Dean Romig]

Well maybe they were eating the maggots but I have seen it twice on carcasses.

The first source I looked had almost exclusively vegetation, with one mention of "insects". I think bugs are important to young poults

[Dean Romig]

From my experience, they are opportunistic feeders and will sample and/or eat almost anything on the ground or low bushes... they're sort of scavengers.

Go to a chicken or turkey yard if there is such a thing anymore . Both birds will eat their own dead . So as to them eating a carcass or maggots from the carcass I have no problem believing that .

I put the recipe for Wild Goose in Cider in the Wild Game recipe section.

Thank you ! When I started this thread it wasn’t meant to mean I wanted a goose to eat but rather I wanna shoot a few . But I think if we’re able to get a few before the season closes next month I might try again at cooking them .

Had an old friend, now deceased, that you could tell if he was liking a new female. He'd always say he "would eat the peanuts out of her poop".
I think he was serious.
