Currently I breast them out and keep the legs and hearts. I clean them the day I shoot them. I’ve read where some people age for 3 days but I haven’t tried this. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Now that I’m getting into waterfowl I am curious how people clean their birds. Do you let them age? For how long? Do you pluck or skin your birds? Do you keep whole or just certain parts? Do you keep any organs? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Well ended the year with one more mallard. It was a fun first season with Archie. We will be working on his retrieve in the off season. And we may chase a few rabbits. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Managed to still find some open water and got a few. If I knock them down Archie finds them. Still have some retrieve to hand work but a great first year. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I did not compare the DD. I can tell you I am very please with my choice of a WPG. He has tons of natural instinct that as a new versatile dog owner I hope I don't screw up. He also is a great family dog. He is just under 7 months old and I can't tell you how many people are amazed he is that young. Certainly he is a puppy but compared to other breeds he is very well behaved and intelligent for his age. He's got a great nose and knows how to work the wind. When duck hunting he is looking at the birds waiting for them to fall. He absolutely loves the water and not gun shy. I can't wait to see how he is at 2 years.

I certainly look forward to when he has more training. He is not great at sitting in a blind Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

The 6 month old is proving his worth. He swam down a crippled bird into the cat tails and after sending him back in 3 times he chased the bird across the pond and made a great retrieve. He has also put me and my daughter (first year hunting) on a hand full of pheasants. It's going to be a fun season. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app

I was in a similar situation as woodie and talked to some local breeders. It was important for me to be comfortable with the breeder and their pedigree. When multiple breeders from all over the country kept recommending the same breeder it was worth my research. Ultimately I felt comfortable with him and his goals as a breeder. Plus he has similar hunting habits as me so that helped too. I like the fact that this breed is difficult to find. Hopefully it stays that way and the lines stay true Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
