I usually have 2 or 3 in one meal.<br />I use the breasts and sometimes the gibblets.

At least that's what I found when I was looking for info online. <br /><br />Of course you'll need to have a place to hunt.<br /><br />Bigger game like deer requires an additional license fromAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-69376197336273372212011-10-24T19:24:13.264-05:002011-10-24T19:24:13.264-05:00Hi Lisa!
