They are invasive on my property. I use trained cats to flush them out and then take them down with a rifle.
Looks like you’re offering me an egg in these trying times.
Edit: Nice pussies bro.
Wow that sounds so awesome. Please tell us more.
I wield absurdism as a worthless mutant power.
I do not think you know what worthless means. Leveraging cats to hunt birds and eggs is so metal and worthy of praise.
Unless this is a woosh moment and I am too in awe to see it.
It's a woosh.
As someone who grew up in Philly, I'm slightly bemused as to why as a group we don't seem to have ever tried adding scrambled egg in our cheesesteaks. Or scrapple, for that matter.
Brother, this is starting to sound like heresy. I beg you to reconsider your words before the locals find out.
Egg on a cheesesteak is actually amazing - had it once at a food truck that called it a "breakfast steak" and it changed my life forver.
That looks like a pretty good meal, nice job
Awesome and hearty breakfast idea! But many adjacent questions. You have that many birds nesting on your property? Ground nesting? What kind? Are the eggs fertilized and can you still eat them if so? How did you get your cats used to the noise of the gun? Wish you were my neighbor, would love to learn several of your life skills. ☺️
We have 15 chickens, 5 ducks and, as of this week, six geese[0]. The goose eggs are fertilized but the chicken and duck are not. We have no roosters or drakes because they always cause too much trouble. Roosters attack my wife first thing in the morning and drakes murder mates. So we always end up getting rid of them if that show up. Gun was just to make a ludicrous picture. Although this thing is a muzzle flare suppressed subsonic 22LR so I could fire this thing and the cats wouldn't even hear anything more than a click of the trigger and the spin of the bullet traveling through the air. So if I did fire it they wouldn't even care.
[0] We just rehomed a goose to a local person that had just one goose after a raccoon attack.
All those birds would keep things lively there! I thought the gun in the picture with the cats was a great touch. Very African safari. 😁
It was my attempt to one-up this classic:
I will never make or eat this, yet I 100% approve this creation! Make more!
