Thread: Ideas for catching wild chickens

I dunno how it's happened but there's about 8 seemingly wild chickens that continually make their way into my yard at night, absolutely destroy my garden and hedges and then leave in the morning. I'm having an absolute bastard of a time catching them so i can either turn them in to animal control or dispose of them. Has anyone dealt with such a situation? Any advice on catching them? They've proven very elusive. I have a bunch of possum traps but i'm pretty sure it wouldn't be legal or effective to use them.
