Asa do you have the same results with egg shells? I was thinking of saving a few shells to add eye appeal to some k9 or mink sets.

If one were to use egg shells or any visible bait as eye appeal here in my area they would have sets full of ravens, crows, eagles and turkey vultures. I have never found a need for that sort of added eye appeal, only making sets where they are visible from reasonable distance. Canine and bobcat hole type sets are made with a hump or visible object for a backing and made in moss, short grass, pine needles, etc so their is nothing in the way to hamper the animal's view with the hole facing the likely anticipated approach of the animal.

If they are good and stinky now its time to add the salt or preservative and mix it in good. It would probably take a week or ten days to stop them from working completly even with the preservative added so they wouldn't blow up the jar if the cap were put on tight. Add the desired ingedients and let age in a cool dark place with the cap on loosley. Ace

'Skinner, I got a batch of my own brewing. But I used the shells. Have had them in a cleaned jar for two years now. Keep on throwing more in after each egg breakfast. Very different odor from last year to now. Figured on playing around with some "attractors" and this is a very simple way of doing it.

Scoop full of this mix in a deep dirthole should throw the coyotes a curve. lol
I could see putting yours in a squirt bottle ...quick squirt and go..no mess.
