hanging birds

Like most on here I prepare wildfowl within a day or two of shooting depending on the weather. In September all my fowl go into a fridge as soon as possible and delt with the next day ( grass feeding geese can go off within hours in warm weather ). But in cold weather I am happy to hang birds in the shed for several days - 6 at the most.

I've been warned before about steel shot in the birds rusting if you leave them to long, anyone think there's anything in that?.
I usually leave them for 2 or 3 days (except early season). If the ducks have been eating grain/seeds that's fine, if they smell a bit fishy (due to diet) probably better not to let it taint the meat.
