Thank you very much Carol! I don't have a duck ready, but we have

our >> eyes on a farm that sells whole, free range chickens, and we're

thinking about buying a chicken. The wife knows I hate chicken, so
the idea is that buying one that has been cuddled and loved might
improve the taste, and perhaps Carols Simply Ducky or Donalds Duck

Ducks used are commercial type which are very fatty.   Wild duck
isn't very fatty from what I have been told.

 
Even wild duck has substantial subcutaneous fat.  It keeps them warm
in the water.

Of course it does, but it's reputed to be much less and oddly, higher
in cholestrol.  See the link I just sent 'D'.
