"have you seen our peacocks"? his neighbor asked my brother law....as he said to me "I replied "they're not on the roof?"....I figured that was a better answer than "seeing how I asked you to collect them three thousand times and they spent their entire time either making a racket on our roof or shitting everywhere I shot them"

A very, very effective plan B -- a fitting end to a Peacock story

I don't know about the Guineas but the peacocks are tasty if done right.

Oh, our neighbor has peacocks too. :roll:

A mate of mine shot a galah when we were camping at about 14, we decided to eat it.

The traditional recipe for galah calls for a pot of water, a stone and a galah...."after boiling the galah in the billy with a quart of water and the stone eat the stone"

We were young, we thought we knew everything, we should have stuck to the recipe...

I think the turducken was inspired by this....

Hey Doc

That just a myth, I used to live on a Banana and Paw Paw Plantation (in the long distant past) and we did the same with a Scrub Turkey only we used an old Boot instead of the Stone,
but we were really hungry so we ate both and I could not pick the difference.

  Sid.

Galah is another word for Hoon but they are pretty universal - Although Popeye had Goons...
If enough is good and more is better, too much should be just about right.
