My post #11 about using eggs as bait will solve your problem. I`ve caught everything with eggs except bobcats. Had to use a dead chicken to catch the bobcat. Your thought about using smelly baits to attract predators that would normaly not come in is unfounded. If they are hungry, they will smell chickens, ducks, etc. and come for them. The bait may waylay their first attempts at your birds. All you guys empress me with your enjinuity in building your traps. I spent $200 on a big one with a bait compartment in one end. Had it for 9 years and figure it`s the best $200 I`ve ever spent, but I like what ya`ll have done. Good luck to ya........Pop
