"Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie" seems like the solution to me. You ought to be able to get that many with no more than two shots from a 12 gauge. [img]/forums/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I actually did that a couple of times when I was a kid. The blackbirds were so small that the breast was about all the meat there was, so we just skinned them out, boiled the breasts and had one nice bite of meat from each side which we removed from the bone and used instead of chicken to make pot pies.
