Ok I have heard views about caulking birds and still not sure about it. Can someone tell me the pros and cons on caulking vs no caulk to a bird. Im not just talking the wings Im also talking the head and body. Ive been told caulk will make a fuller looking bird but have never tried it.Thanks much for any input.

I find caulking great because the caulk makes the feathers easyer to lay the right way. It altso makes it easyer to bild up the small muscelmass that you have removed.
It can make a bird look fuller but its easy to fill it with to much and then you get in the feathers, and thats a REALLY messy job to get it clean again. It altso makes the bird more solid if you use it in the joimts of the leg, wings and neck.
Hope this was the answer you wanted?
