I think they are pretty birds, just not a great eater.

I agree they are pretty enough, but don't know what they taste like. I've got some breast in the freezer and will either put in a gumbo or make jerky out of them.

Ringers are great for gumbo. If you hunt big waters long enough you will kill one with better plumage than that one. Good luck!
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

They taste no different than a Mallard or a teal. They are veggie eaters. They just have to dive to get to their food. Only thing about a Ringer is that they are hard to skin. But, a sharp knife will take care of that.

I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.
