I've run out of squirrels on my permission

Don't worry, they'll be back!!

[dogs-n-natives 1,182]

I must confess, not yet. That's an omission I'd better put right

 

well i am ashamed to say, i have never tried grey squirrel, but since moving to herts, and with the place being over-run with them, plus the nearest supermarket being waitrose and not being able to drive, i think it may well be on the menu some time in the very near future, ecspecially after buying myself an airarms s410

I'll trade you some deer hinds for a bunch of squirrels if I can come and shoot some!

me and les got these in a couple of hour's duncan,we,ve got a right little spot for em...

OOh I bet those squeakers are delicious deep fried mmmmm

Eating tree rats. I never had them, but I don't think I could actually do it.

My dog retreived one once and was ill for three days

Yeuch!

lol doubt it was the squirrel. To quote the wild food company

 

Squirrel Meat

 

It's low in fat, low in food miles and completely free range. In fact, some claim that Sciurus carolinensis - the grey squirrel - is about as ethical a dish as it is possible to serve on a dinner plate. It taste is something between duck and lamb.

'It's moist and sweet because, basically, its diet has been berries and nuts'

 

Saying that I did read else where they will sample a bit of carrion if needs be but we will gloss over that

Thats the bit that's putting me off, that and their penchant for chicks

You are right - very hard to beat IMHO

Excellent, the less "Tree Rats" the better.

nice bag of greys, there seems to be a lot more this year than i have seen in a long time, is it like that by you?

Good going Foxhunter. I agree with you Gamerooster there are so many about this year. I was standing in Buxton Park Road area last week and they were running all over the place. Anyone live in that area, get out bag a few (hundred)
