    Hawk trap

    DS-I didnt messure it, put I would guess that its around 3 lb. of force to trigger it. Also if a Coopers miss the stick, it can be triggered by pushing it side ways. Jasper- That I dea of the homing pigeon thing is brillant!.

    Hawk trap

    I built this today for a falconer in south jersey that gets call outs for migrating hawks that get stuck inside big warehouses. Pigeons in the bottom, hawk flies in hits the trip stick, he’s trapped. Now let’s see if it works. I built it off the Swedish goshawk trap design. If you have chickens/pigeons getting worked over by hawks like I do lol, I think it would work.
  4. Zek-I just copied this set up off a falconer that fed everything he had from a set up like this.Just as long as the food was there with water he had no problems let them go a day without....It was like lord of the flies survival of the fitest. The first to go were the young and up from there. I through in and old newpaper in and its gone in a night.
  5. A friend told me that the KGB used it to kill a high level spy on the London Bridge a while back. They jab him in the leg with the tip of a umbrella. So it sounds like I wont be smoking either.
  6. Zek-Go to "working dog training and health" 2nd page in the middle the thread is called "rat Box" and yes the hutch is escape proof.
  7. I took this around 4:30am before the trial started.
  8. Zek-I see your avitar is a Goshawk, do you feed them to your bird? I breed rats also and also cross domestic to wild rats.Here is the post I made a while back. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/index...showtopic=30160
  9. A friend of mine had a 3/4 cross from DH.It was sent overto the states withe a 3/4berdie boarder cross and the dogs grew up together. The Berdie had some stamina but lacked the "kill" of the other dog. Now we all Know 1 dog you cant base a solid opinion on but I liked the B/B cross alot better out of those two.
  10. The dogs in those pics are American bred Staghounds wich are totally different from the Staghounds from the UK. The Staghound here have been bred down for a couple hundred years to run catch coyotes wich on the average are 35lbs.
  11. Go with the STAGS bred to run, catch and kill other K9s period.
  12. Here is somthing I used before. http://www.livetrap.com/cgi/search.cgi?use...;2=Pigeon+Traps
  13. I know falconers wont feed wild pigeons from any enviroment. Take them home freeze them whole 30 days and feed them to test fert. See what happens. Save alot of $$$. Raw chicken I be eating that myself.
  14. In 1992 I saw my first one at a falconer’s yard in Maryland. He used the rats to train his young terriers. After the training was done they were fed to his several hawks he flew. He told me that from a young age depending how the terrier acted he could tell pretty much what kind of hunting dog he would have later in its life. Since then I always wanted to build one and I just finished it. I want to have the supply on hand as I can see with my young terriers and ferrets what’s what. I have a few friends that fly hawks and my dogs and ferrets never get tired of eating them. So let the traini
  15. Hastings- Its heat treated pan, a bitch to drill through. Here's the sight. It will be the last shovel you buy. http://www.wwmfg.com/product_category.asp?idcategory=1 Tough day out is still a day out, and thank god the terriers got out after being skunked.... coulda been fatal. Nice pics, was curious about your shovel... Who makes it and where did you get it ? Always on the lookout for a good shovel. Is it forged or tempered?
  16. Ya a bad day is better than workin unless your digging terriers for a living.
  17. I have a nice bitch named Gwen that has just come off pups and has had a long lay-off, so I decided to start getting her back in shape for the up coming fall/winter hunting season.. Saturday I needed to do a little training with the foxhounds and after that was taken care of I took Gwen out to do a little woodchuck hunting before it got to hot. I was with a friend who had to terriers and his Airedale that is used as a draw-dog. We hit a patch of woods next to a bean field and started checking dens with not much luck. As my friend went ahead I checked another part and fell behind as I jogged to
