frangible BBs for starling control?

Quick update:

Not only does accuracy kill, it also cuts down on richochets. The kill count is up to 101 since Sunday and 140-ish over the past month. I only get two or three that bounce around out of dozens of shots in a sesh. All with the humble 901, iron sights, and cheap wadcutters.

If they will chamber, try backwards pellets.

I’ll second that! At close range plenty accurate that way.

Brendan, If I recall correctly chicken's will eat pebbles.  I think that it has something to do with their digestive system.  I think your use of frangible BB's may be a good idea if they are made of clay or some non lead material. Hopefully they won't swallow any lead pellets.
I could be wrong,  I haven't taken care of chickens since I was 14.
