    Can I get some ideas?

    For an attractant I have used anise. You know that liquid licorice flavored stuff. Coons love that smell. Any time I start to see coon sign around the coop I set either a 220 conibear in a 5 gallon pail or the largest havahart cage trap. I prefer the conibear. Usually it will only take 1 maybe 2...

    LOL. Well I did have underware on. There is no pride when it comes to protecting the girls.

    LOL. I was thinking that but wouldn't say it. It's always hard to see an animal in a bad way. We are human and do have compassion for all living creatures.
