Pretty much the same as I did with all mine yesterday.The only thing I did different was lined the bed with reynolds rap as a Moisture barrier.I used barn dirt.It was so light and powdery it was probably old manure.

KM - Do you notice a higher percentage of rabbit problems when using the chicken litter in the snowy conditions? Tried some last year in the snow and it seemed that the rabbits loved to sit and do rabbit things in that dry bedding material.

Kmiler, was the cat you caught in the trap, 20 yards from the cage you had set. Was it a a tom? Full size or a lil bit smaller than full grown? Im asking because i have missed cats one day that had HUGE paw prints and the next day ill have a cat...its a tom..but im pretty sure it wasnt the one i missed becuase they prints arent as big and its a almost mature tom. I personally think youger toms follow around mature toms..but 1 to 2 days behind so they dont get whipped. Can you help aid to this?

kirk.its all your fault! All those pics and videos of you trapping cats made me go out today and set 4 spots. Just enough to keep the itch down..until another 2 weeks and then i will go full force at 'em! How many locations do you have total kmiller?
