Yes this was said earlier but then

wiser heads said use honey (straw) and catch an eggs or two

But fuckin bird destroyed my garden! Two chicken claws can utterly wreak havok on mater plants, this I now know.

As a neighbor said when I boiled the content of this thread down to him, "Who'd want that nasty old flea bitten bird?!"

Apparently he is a better sizer up of chickens than I am! I laughed out loud for real when he said that, to me, a chicken is a chicken, it puts out eggs and meat but he's all affected by the appearance of the bird? LOL Different neighbor I mean.
