How does he jump into the pen?
I have 6 foot tall wire fencing but no roof/cover on my coop. Somehow the fox just hurdles over 6 feet
I caught that fisher behind my coops, I wanted to see what was cruising by them at night.... Coops are secure so I released him so I could recapture him when the trapping season opened, caught him in a conibear bucket trap second day of the season.Fishers are easy to cage trap. What'd you do with that one?
Cage Trapping:
Pros: easy to understand, not "scary", can usually release non-target animals
Cons: EXPENSIVE, tough to hide from do-gooders, not coyote effective
@JJSS89 sorry for the late reply. I have a smaller coop with a chicken wire cover I put my ducks and chickens into. They can't stay there forever though. Its too small to be a permanent home for all my ducks and chickens. Now about that fox,what bait/lure, position, disguise, etc should I use? I was thinking a live bird inside a mesh cage. I could wire the cage to the end of my trap. The chirps as well as the smell might attract the fox. What do you think about this live bait method?
P.S - The trap I have is the Havahart Extra Large 1081 live trap. It says recommended for fox.
