Rinse ducks inside and out and pat dry. Cut off pointed rear parts and wing tips. Season ducks with salt and pepper and arrange on baking sheet. Roast in preheated oven at 180°C (approximately 350°F) for about 2 hours.

Combine everything with mustard, tomato paste, 200 grams (approximately 2 ounces) of honey and orange juice. Season with salt and pepper. Mix remaining honey with paprika. Peel onions and cut in half crosswise. Rinse oranges in hot water, pat dry and cut into quarters, remove seeds. Rinse oregano and sage, shake dry and chop coarsely.

After about 1 hour of roasting, drain accumulated duck fat. Add onionsand oranges to the pan. Add broth and  roast for 35 minutes more. Add honey and paprika mixture and broth to the pan and brush ducks with chile honey mixture. If ducks brown too quickly, cover with aluminum foil.
