    Finally! Angus back in 1958 I invented and patented the stick. There are plenty of them around if you look for them so grab a stick in your right hand and some wheat in your left. Spread wheat on the ground, wait patiently and when they turn up pound the chickens with a strong downward blow. That'll be dollar fifty three thanks (note that I have kept the price of sticks the same for the last fifty years). It hasn't been the business success I expected it to be.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I'm patiently waiting for Stick 2: Electric Boogaloo, i'm sure it'll reinvigorate the market

    Go to the library, get out 'Danny the champion of the World' by Roald Dahl. Should give you a few ideas.

    Oh you guys.... back in the good old days we just found out which tree they were roosting at night and climbed up lit them up with a torch and bashed them over the noggin with a short bit of 4 x 2 ( I suppose you could use bamboo a la Ricky Chen)

    obviously if they are roosting in your neighbors trees might pay to ask them first

    What is a 4x2 but a stick by another name Mikee. You have been ripping off my idea all this time.

    They can be pricks to catch. I remember resorting to the A5 as a kid to get a rooster that we couldn’t get hold of. Was beating the crap out of the bantam roosters, so he got sorted out.

    Probably not ideal for the backyard...

    Are you sure they are chickens? As pointed out earlier, they roost at night so wont be active.
