You need to be an expert on deboning the birds. The turkey usually has all the bones except the legs removed and is split at the breast. The other two are completely deboned. Then you put the other two birds inside the open turkey (usually with stuffing between them). You sew up the turkey and roast it till the center is at 160F.
If you can't do that you can buy them already prepared just needing to be roasted. If even that sounds tough you can buy the complete roast in the supermarket already cooked. It does get pricey though if you go for fully prepared.

A lot of work unless you have alot of time on your hands. I took a class at the Kitchen Conservatory and it took an experienced chef more than an hour to debone the turkey, duck and chicken. You can buy online for about $65 plus shipping; try Schuncks and/or Dierberg's in the St. Louis area. Most larger markets carry them, if not ask your local butcher.

turducken--from paula deen(this is on the foodnetwork.com site)
Brine:
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 gallon water
18 to 21-pound turkey, skin intact and boned except for drumsticks
House seasoning, recipe follows
Cornbread Dressing, recipe follows
3 to 4-pound duck, boned
3 to 4-pound chicken, boned
Paprika
To make the brine: Mix salt and sugar with the water. Brine is ready when the mixture is completely dissolved. If the water is heated to quicken the process, make sure it is cooled to room temperature before placing meat in. Let the 3 birds sit in brine in the refrigerator overnight.
Preheat roaster to 500 degrees F.
Lay turkey skin side down on a flat surface. Dust turkey with House Seasoning and add 1/4-inch layer of cornbread dressing. Lay duck skin side down on top of dressing. Dust duck with House Seasoning and add 1/4-inch layer of dressing. Repeat with the chicken.
Begin trussing up the turkey at the neck. Insert metal skewer about 1/2-inch from the edge and up through the other side. Run butcher's twine between skin and skewer and tighten to draw both sides together. Continue down to legs. With every other skewer, draw together the duck and chicken skin. Tie together turkey legs to resemble standard turkey. Dust turkey skin with paprika.
Roast turducken for 15 minutes. Then turn the roaster down to 225 degrees F to finish, approximately 3 hours. Remove turducken from roaster once the internal temperature in the chicken reaches 155 degrees F. Let rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
Cut across the middle of the breast completely through. Plate thin slices containing turkey, duck and chicken.
Cook's Notes: If using a smoker to cook, smoke at 225 degrees F for 5 hours, rotating every 20 to 30 minutes until internal temperature reaches 155 degrees F and external temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Try to keep the flare-ups from the fire to a minimum.

you may cook any meat in a microwave, whether that is unquestionably not stated! in case you do, i could cut back your products into something one inch and smaller because of the fact over an inch could take longer to cook and via the time that is totally cooked, the exterior could be rubber. the reason you do not cook meat in microwaves is with the help of the fact a microwave works via making use of the moisture in the beef, heating it up for this reason cooking despite it touches. once you are trying this to meat, it dries the beef out and you lose very almost any flavor from it. -Adam-

You put the smaller ones in the bigger ones and cook anc cook and cook. It isn't worth it unless you are an experienced chef and won't botch it up!

Wal-Mart has them in the frozen food section for $49.99 here in MS. Not sure where you are but if you are near a Wal-Mart I would check there. Good Luck and let us all know how it turns out.
