Is that a rat?
It is. 2nd dead one since last fall. I think they say if you see one, there are many. I live about a mile outside of the cesspool of Worcester MA. A couple years ago, a nice neighborhood in Worcester was overrun by rats when they demolished a mall to put up a Jeff Besos distribution center(that was finished at least a year ago and remains empty). I suspect the rats have migrated to my suburb. I guess it beats being overrun by the ‘newcomers’ that are invading our cities…Is that a rat?
My oldest son worked on a farm for a while. He was in the chicken enclosure one morning before it was light and saw a rat creeping along towards some feed and unnoticed by the chickens. The sun reached the right angle to stream in thru a window and shined on the rat. The rat froze but the chickens saw him. My son said he was torn to pieces in seconds by the flock. They are descendants of dinosaurs…Yep, I get lots of opposums, 'coons, and four flavors of squirrels. I've gotten more mice since I gave up on raising chickens. The chickens kept the mice under control. Killing a mouse was easy for what ever chicken spotted 'em, but keeping it was hard. The rest of 'em would chase after the victor and take away the prize. They love eating fresh meat.
That is what I was thinking. Last summer I think I pissed it off. It trashed all my feeders, bent all the shepherds hooks and took a **** in my yard. Crossbow cane and assembled. Bolts didn’t come with tips…I can just picture a bear getting his nosed whacked by a rat trap!

Thanks. That sounds like the ticket for me. I just want to blast the fkrs. My wife is freaking the fk out.
We used to use a old version of that to hunt squirrels. It would stun 'em if you hit 'em in the head or break ribs with a body shot, and you didn't run the risk of having an arrow stuck way up in a tree.
I don’t want to upset my neighbors. I am going to try the crossbow when the tips come later today.22 long rifle and a head shot for squirrels always worked for me. Actually I've killed many deer, rabbit,and squirrel with a 22 long rifle. If your a good shot it's a very deadly weapon, especially with hollow points.
