So we've been having predator issues again (another fox, I think). I set up the trap this morning.
This is what I get for baiting it with salmon.


NOTE: not a fox...

When we lived in Chico we had a 125 gallon tank, sold it about 15 years ago sadly.

I think he's allergic to something else. I've had 6 groups I've raised in the laundry room and he never had a problem with any of them. I did move the incubator outside, that,s the only think different since we built the house 8 years ago.

Silver fox... nah - hungry cat. Do not use Jack Mackerel either... cats go crazy for that too. Could you use an egg?

My luck it would have been my cat.

That would have been an awesome brooder.

Well, allergens do change - I was never "allergic" to any of the seasons - until about 2 years ago when I noticed some stuffiness when a certain tree was blooming - and I have been living her for 11 years - it never bothered me before. I hope you figure out what is causing the allergies - they can be miserable.

A person on the NYD Hatch-a-long had a roo that was not doing his job, so she said she was going to use him as bait in the cage to catch a fox!

She did not do that though--she found a new home for him.

Been there, done that - that's why I said NOT to use mackerel, from experience. Dry cat food will catch a skunk or a raccoon - if your cats already are full.

Oh yes - live chicken would work for the fox, but I would feel sorry for the chicken! I used a dead goose that was killed two nights before in a live trap - and caught a raccoon! I was hoping to catch whatever had killed the goose - only the raccoon wasn't big enough to have killed that one with one bite - and carried off the other 20 lb goose .. so it wasn't him.

Oh, I forgot - my mom caught a skunk in a trap using a live rooster - only the rooster was beyond the trap in another cage - and the skunk could only get close to the chicken by going into the trap. I still felt sorry for the rooster - it made quite a racket when the skunk tripped the trap - that woke everybody up!
