Congradulations on your kill...I'd like to have a nickel
for all the ones I have shot with my dads old 22 Ranger with
peep sights when I was your age....I wonder what ever happen
to that little rifle..We had to put a little nail in it for a firing pin.
Oh,those were the good old days...Thanks for bringing back
some lost memories.

I love to shoot sparrows like that, we have a wild game farm, and there are 100's of sparrows out there. We just go out with 8 or 9 shot and shoot away. Some times i'll take the .17 HMR or .22 and shoot them(because there will be no lead in the bird), then I will go feed them 2 my 2 pet foxes!

Do you really have 2 pet foxes? If you do how do you get them as pets or babys?

They were babies when I got them, and were friendly, then they got their wild instinct back and decided it chomp in my finger, so now I don't play with them. The female I have is a red, and she had kits with my Silver male, but they died and she ate them. If they die again and she eats them, im gonna zap them and get the silver mounted.

That is awesome! Where did you get them? Did you like take them from a den or something? I would love to have pet foxes...
