    Culling a chicken (sorry if graphic)

    My honey has used a pellet gun to cull birds several times. It drops the bird nicely, but you have to be a dead on shot. A bird's head is a pretty darn small target, and they're not usually so nice as to hold still for you. [/ is the head the best place to hit
