cornishtrapper 3 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Get the birds used to going in and out of the trap first , I prebait my trap for a week first , I use chopped maize as bait but if they are eating horse feed you could try that, I would also cover the feed that they are eating now to encourage them to go into the trap good luck Quote Link to post
