Looking for magpies for taxidermy

Hi All,

If anyone out there is shooting magpies and you don't have a use for them I would like a pair of adults for taxidermy. I'm based in the Manawatu.

Look forward to hearing back!

Many thanks,

Chase

You won't want my ones:D

mine are missing a few bits when i hit them, can you add parts from others

I was just going to suggest that most magpies shot are probably a little worse for wear :x_x:

Depending on what you are shooting them with. Shot gun is usually fine but hollow nose .22 not so much. Let me know if you get one that looks presentable! Put it in the freezer and give me a message 👍Thank you

I’ve a couple but you might want some thick rimmed small glasses and some springs so you can fix the springs to the glasses and the add the eyeballs to the springs.......might be easier than trying to push the eyeballs back in.........mind you me mum used to say if ya did that the tongue would poke out:XD:

I'll message you when I've got a couple.Attachment 152810

Hi I’ll be down in Marsterton between Christmas and new years and will probably knock a few over with .22 subs. I will be happy to give them to you if you haven’t got any by then. I guessing you would prefer body shots rather than head shots.

@Mallard1 I just dropped one with 7.5shot clay target ammo.Have put in the freezer.

shot one yesterday, its in the compost, 17 seems pretty clean... I'm far away though.

have you got some yet.
Im in the manawatu and shoot magpies with .22 subs or .22 mag.
I will let you know if I get any suitable.
cheers

I’m coming past @Dundee though to Wellington mid week if you need it picked up, @Mallard1.

Its still in the freezer @Mallard1 obviously hasn't been back on here.

Not since the day after he posted......
