Hi

I lost a call bird end of last year,

A mock up nest with 2 chicken eggs in the Larsen and got one within a week,

As for shooting them patience mate,I sit in one of the fowl sheds and wait and they come to visit the call bird every morning,the reluctant ones just sit and chatter on top it the glass house so I

shoot them off the top with a air gun,also they hang about the muck pile by the dozen,once got three with one shot from the shotty lol,

Keep at em

_{what i do is set the larson baited with a rabbit under thier nest . it will work put the cage in at night and you should have luck.}
