They are worth a few bob as food. Free range now as well.

Damn it - all these years, I've just been an amateur chicken catcher. Now that I'm needed, and I don't have the right skills

Maybe you start with something easier, smaller and slower, like slugs.

"Police said specialist "chicken catchers" and vets are at the scene. "

How do you become a specialist chicken catcher, is there sufficient demand for this to be a career choice? Plan B anyone?

Edit:

Dammit, wendigo beat me too it
