My buddy said he saw a YouTube video and they were raving about getting 15 in one day so I guess we have to be thankful for breaking those glass ceilingsMan I thought I had a good day last year with 80+ in one day Between my wife and I
We both wear hydration CamelBaks that we converted to carry our air tanks. We rigged up some harnesses to hang our rifles from the same CamelBak shoulder straps which works great to distribute the weight of our gear. We wear fanny packs (well belly packs) to carry our mags and pellets in as well as a few Little Hotties hand warmer kits for when its really cold. 4 Hours of hunting is all we can take these days when its in the 20s and 30s here. We are both in our mid 60's so its just nice to be able to get out and walk around, get some exercise, fellowship and blast birdz together.That's mind boggling! Your buddies hydration pack shows how much dedication you guys have--Not even time to take a water break
Owner told us to toss any that fall into the main aisle in with the cattle. They have equipment that cleans the cattle pens and all waste (birds included) is pushed into a sludge pit and retention pond. We don't eat any, we just provide the owner pest removal for letting us shoot there.What do you do with all the pigeons after the cull ?, do you eat some of them ?, i love pigeon haven’t had one for ages i bet its almost a PIA having to collect them all afterwards?…..
No they don’t eat them. If one falls into their feed they will just push it out of the way with their nose. I think the cows might be afraid of them. Last hunt one dropped into a rowdy bunch of Elsie’s and they freaked out and started mooing and prancing like crazy. I thought that pigeon was going to cause a stampede.Did the cows eat the pigeons in order to produce milk with more protein?

I know cows do not eat them. Pigs can eat everything.No they don’t eat them. If one falls into their feed they will just push it out of the way with their nose.

Looking forward to the next hunt. 1,259 birds in 4 trips is pretty amazing.Hey buddy, glad to see you chime in here and share the fun.
Hey guys, this is my hunting buddy @reiffra945 I have been talking about. We are planning our next hunting trip to the dairy on Tuesday so we will try to post a few more pictures of our fun adventures.
I've noticed the same reaction at my barn permission when a pigeon goes down & flaps a bit or takes a few steps before expiring . Kind of funny . They don't seem to be too concerned about the rats , a few sniffs & they lose interest.No they don’t eat them. If one falls into their feed they will just push it out of the way with their nose.

They roost above the cows, poop on the cows and in the cows feed. It’s sickening and I would not eat those winged rats nor drink the cows milk. It’s just plain gross.I hope you are taking some of those home to the freezer. They are eating the same thing the cows are eating and will be healthy and clean.
