I got woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of chickens clucking in the chicken pen. Grabbed the shot gun and flash light and under a full moon didn't need the flash light till I got to the chicken pen. Flash light wasn't working real good but by the time I got it working that's all I saw was Skunk tail and *** hole in my face. 2 rounds of 4 shot in desperation killed the skunk 3 chickens and 5 chicks.
All the windows in the house was open on that hot summer night not far from the skunk spatter and that was the last time I ever shot a skunk.
