But I butcher my own meat...calves, pork, chicken, duck, rabbit, squirrel, deer, coon....you name it...wonder if thats why it tastes so much better. Aside from the feed it gets, does the blood add to teh flavor...cuz man I LOOOOOVE me a rare steak!:thumb:

Very cool article. I always suspected that the reason pheasant and duck breasts were so dark was that they were getting more use. Thanks for sharing this!
