old'un Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Just wondered how common this was, a few years ago I was shooting on a field of rape with a mate we had shot a few when my mate commented on the crops of the birds we had shot, he said it feels like they have been eating wet sponges, so I picked one up and opened its crop it was full of small black slugs, we checked about ten birds and none of them had rape in their crops just full of slugs!! Not seen it before or since, Just wondered if anyone else as seen this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have found lots of different things in pigeons but never with so many of one thing (slugs) and such a lot of the birds having nothing else in their crops but slugs And I mean slugs their crops were like tennis balls. Mined you we better keep quite cus if Mr farmer thinks they are doing more good than harm he might tell us to leave em alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
