We're begining to get a bit of a problem with crows and magpies ie; they're going after the chicken eggs as well as showing an unhealthy interest in the baby chooks.
We're tempted to shoot them but I hate taking a life for the sake of it and wondered if anyone knew if they made decent eating?
Your not taking life just for the sake of it though. You've said it yourself, the birds are taking an unhealthy interest in your hens eggs and chicks.
I wouldn't eat a carrion eater, it would be a recipe for disaster.
In the States for example, the crows carry West Nile disease.
