You answered this all wrong, you should have said you were using a 22 with iron sights on it. Now we have to conclude your a bad shot, the other way we would just think " wow, he gives them a sporting chance with a open sight 22." Or better yet said you were shooting at them with a 2 inch 22 pistol![/quot

Well I am a poor liar . Momma used to whoop my butt if I lied . Left a lasting impression . She would give me a easy out . Tell me the truth and I wont whoop you . I ratted myself out all the time well except that first time I lied . She kept her word .

I would love to see more of that bird to make a determination. Tail, neck, stance, shanks.

Ok! I will get some when I get home

Sounds good Layers.

I've had our BYC Birthdays and BYC award things not enabled until today. I see I celebrated my 4th Anniversary on here. Ralphie: How is it that you got BYC friend with all your brushes with BYC double secret probations?

"Fun and Great to have around! They are our favorite comedians and enablers, our most cluckative."

Perhaps I should be more cluckative....if you all can stand it.

In my experience, it is amazing what a skilled marksman you become when the animal is charging at you as the only means of escape. It happened again just yesterday when I was being charged by a Eutamias.

My eldest daughter is doing youth gun safety training presently.

NOTE TO SELF: Do NOT allow her to see my BYC account she may get crazy ideas. It is bad enough she "outshoots" me with the 22. I can hardly wait to see her with the 20 gauge shotgun come November.

Just in case any of you are interested

My daughter also has a dead eye. But she doesn't have the confidence or heart to shoot at animals. Targets of a tin-can-nature though: Beware. Archery is her thing though. She is the best in her class....and a few of those boys are big bow hunters with their dads.

We had Spermophilus driving the labrador crazy while camping at Fall Lake. They were pretty brave with their Picnic Table Manners.

Better be careful Ed. You'll put Ralphie over that 1 thing learned/day limit.

You gotta love those little sisters!
I wish the bottom one was standing as nice as the top. You can take both of them, you know? I don't know as there is a limit as to how many to take in one Lot. I have seen as many as 5 in just a pullet or cockerel lot, which is silly, I think. Two is cool but more than that, you are asking a judge to select your birds for you.
Are you entering as a Junior or in Open at Hutch?

I'm thinking of showing in Junior. Can I show a trio in open too??
