I set up an arapuca in our dog kennel to catch some of the dove coming in to eat our goat food. It worked but my son got a little enthusiastic, so did our goat...

We just let them go. The embarassment is enough punishment. Mac

Let me get this straight. You have goat food in the dog kennel? Does the dog know it's goat food? And, have you told the goat that he's rich in protein. I'm sure he'll be thrilled to learn that.:D

Our goat and pit bull actually sleep all snuggled up together, its embarassing. Mac

I just watched the YouTube video (The Colhane Channel - Pict's favorite) on this trap yesterday. That's a pretty nifty design! :thumbup:

Wait... The goat ate the wooden trap? They are great garbage disposals... Not that the trap was garbage.

I made a few of these traps after watching Picts post, Had a lot of fun doing so and it works very well.

They look great, better than a lot of mine do. You got the trigger down, now trow some bird seed under it. Mac
