by **LaylaWoobie** » April 27th, 2008, 12:05 pm

Seriously??? I thought the names were self-explanatory... lol

This is a trick question, right.

okay everyone shut up.

you guys are all big, fat jerks. :bitchSlap:

i guess what i'm looking for is - do they have a lot of meat on them or are they mostly bone? i'm assuming necks can't be very big?

maybe pictures would be better?

I prefer turkey necks and backs...more meat and bigger!

by **LaylaWoobie** » April 27th, 2008, 3:02 pm

I was actually looking at duck necks. Any thoughts?

by **amazincc** » April 27th, 2008, 3:16 pm

Isn't duck really "greasy"?

Depending on where/how the chickens were raised you can get stuff ranging from puny to meaty - but I also prefer turkey.

I know wild duck is very greasy.That is when is it cooked. Never had one raw.

by **LaylaWoobie** » April 27th, 2008, 3:43 pm

that makes sense. I know they have the extra fat layer with being water fowl...

maybe I'll get turkey necks instead.

I use chicken backs usually with my dogs,necks are too small for the boys... :rolleyes2:

The back has a good meat and bone ratio IMO.
Here they are:

Back

Neck

I would say that backs and necks have too much bone to meat ration for every day, but a couple times a week is fine. Or give a back and then some more meat, you know?

I tend to feed chicken necks, but i freeze them in a clump of 2 or 3....

so that they don't inhale them they eat them frozen so they eat a bit slower.

I just bought a case of chicken backs from Palmers and they seemed pretty meaty to me. Not AS meaty as a leg quarter though.

by **LaylaWoobie** » April 27th, 2008, 11:36 pm

Thank you Ellie! That's exactly what I was looking for!

Are the backs big? Like compared to a leg quarter...how big are we talking?

And am I the only one that thinks a neck kind of looks like a penis? :lookaround:
