It depends on how they are cooked. Duckling a l'orange is supposed to be
quite tasty.

The male Musk Duck (Biziura lobata) is said to predate its own young.
What does HANZAB say? What other nestlings / immatures is it known to
predate? Fratricide has been used to describe Kookaburra nestlings
killing siblings, so when an adult bird kills and eats its own young
is that avicide? How common is avicide, e.g. among Australian Magpies
and Black Swans? What word best descibes this situation? What other
waterbirds may predate the young of all members of the Rallidae?
