About ï¿½3.50 on the market last time I had one.

More exciting though - local butcher has pigeons, oven ready, for ï¿½1 each. Tea tonight was pigeon, puffballs and potatos with redcurrant and elderberry port sauce. All homemade / grown / foraged apart from the bird whose breasts were fried up with its liver and the puffballs (common). Its carcass is in the freezer and will end up as stock when I've done similar things with its 3 bretheren - also frozen.

Digression over..

sounds really scrummy. I envy you!...........Too tired to shoot or forage after work at the mo, due to being exhausted, but will resume normal activity shortly!

Rabbits ï¿½4 large farmed at the market, ï¿½2.50 wild at farmers market and farm shop. Pidgeons ï¿½1.50. I always think they're a bit pricey given that pheasant is ï¿½3.

A local farm https://www.lafermedelatour.com/fdtframes.htm has no rabbit but is selling chicken ï¿½7.00 /kg guinea-fowl ï¿½7.50/kg pigeon ï¿½19.00/kg quail ï¿½2.50 ea I can't comment on the quality, as I reckon they're too dear. Mind you, their speciality is foie gras at ï¿½60 to ï¿½105 per kg. They have a restaurant, so I may give that a go for my 50th birthday.

Luckily it was - I got back from the woods soaked, exhausted and very hungry! Now planning the weekends foraging, somewhere in the Peak district.

Marigold and I paid ï¿½4 for a pair at the Chichester market a few weeks back. They were skinned, gutted, deheaded and depawed. Very nice they were too.

So has Whitelegg2 given you the go-ahead to assassinate the squirrels then?

Not yet, but I'm working on it. Whiteleggs 3 and 4 have instructions to run to her every time the squirrel starts the tree shaking. She'll soon get fed up with that then bingo Pete
