Yoggy Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Can't you eat jays? More than likely yes you can eat them. Wether they taste ok is a different matter??...They probably do taste ok..If someone offered me a roast Jay...Yes I would try it. But that doesn`t mean I`d go out and shoot one. I choose not to simply through choice as I have plenty of other Quarry that satisfy myself and the Family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz72 Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Jays (or 'owt else for that matter); If you want to eat it, shoot it. If its causing a problem and needs to be killed, shoot it. If its neither of those and its just for the sake of shooting it because there's nothing to say you can't, get another hobby.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asa Bear Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 I saw one in my back garden this evening. They are beautiful and as I hadn't seen one in the garden before I let it go. Got a bullying magpie and a greedy wood pigeon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danccooke Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 ...any guinea pigs out there? We don't get wild Guinea Pig round my way but I am led to believe it tastes good.... I am always happy to be a tester for foods, I tasted Wrasse Sashimi at a fishing competition the other week to prove a point. We get loads of Jays round my way, similar numbers to Magpie. Although neither stray into my crosshairs. Not by choice just the ways it's turned out. I've popped a few magpie with the shotgun but never had a safe shot at a Jay so have never dropped one. They seem VERY jittery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I start asking for recipe suggestions from a pet shop here, I think people might get worried... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
