    Art,

    Do you notice much difference in the feathers between species? I always assumed the stuff we get commercially is from a mallard, but you know what they say about when you assume....

    Regards,

    Scott. I was in Trout Hunter last and asked about their CDC. I didn't ask about what species but I was told all of their CDC comes from France.

    I'd be willing to wager that the really good cdc comes from some very large species of domestic duck.

    I suspect they are just white mallards... Because I have seen pictures of them picking CDC commercially. Domestic mallards can be some monster birds.

    The only real difference is size, between species, IMO&E... It runs to a fairly universal medium to dark gray color.

    I have some bad news and some good news for you... The bad news is you were beat to the draw by an earlier request via PM.

    The good news is my son and I just came home with ten more ducks. Send me your mailing address by PM and I will get the second bag out to you in tomorrow's mail.
