I went out to close up my chicks to their house and I heard something rustle the leaves behind the coop. It was dark outside except for the back porch light. I was is the run closing the pop door when it happend. I felt a cold chill run down my back lol. I hurried up and closed the door and locked the run and hurried back to the house. I'm not a scaredy cat but that just totally freaked me out.... I haven't seen any coons since last year. There has been a mother cat moving from yard to yard with her babies but this sounded different. I want to set the live trap but I don't want to catch the mother cat. What bait is best for coons AND possums?That a cat won't eat.
 
my brother used to use hot cocoa mix that came in packets...I think mint....idk! we don't have possums in Utah though.

I dunno, maybe a chicken ? JK, just kidding, I'm not sure what you could use, However our coons around here seem to like our left over corn on the cob.
 
ANYTHING sweet/sugary .... the marshmallows are a good one... my Uncle get Raccoons (Colorado), we don't in AZ! So he is always having to deal with them!

When you get the willies like that, it usually is something that won't fit into an animal trap. Put your birds up before dark. If you have to go out there again, have someone waiting for you at the back door watching.

Sadly, we have to tote a pistol with us to take garbage to the alley after dark.

The worse predators are the two legged ones.
