Even $15 if you want to go cheap.

But to answer your question, no sorry.

Coons absolutely love those smaller old varmint cages. Gives them something to hold onto while they spin the spinner plate so their buddies can get more corn. Varmint cages have to be large enough so a coon can't reach into the spinner plate for it to be effective.

Seems high to me but maybe after you get going and I can see what is involved it might justify expense

Not sure where the figures are coming from with the home built units...we've made ours for years out of rolled fencing for about $5/ea at the most. You only need something that restricts the coon's reach to the length of its arm. Make a circle (just a little smaller circumference than a 55gal barrel) and tie it together. Cut a bottom for it and wire it on. Cut a door in the side to access the timer. The varmint cage only needs to be 10 inches long to keep the coons out. It's 100% coon proof. Yes 100%. We've done this for many years.

To answer some concerns, cages work if they are big enough or have such small holes the coons can't reach through but the issue is cages knock too much corn down for some of us as we like our corn spread out as much as possible. Coons have much longer arms then most people think, my cages have to be at least 18 inches from the cage to the spinner plate in order to make sure they can't reach it. I know for a fact at my places I will have more deer at feeders that the corn gets spread out good. Another problem I run into with cages is a lot of my feeders have the solar panel mounted on the control box on the opposite side of the door. The solar panel ends up getting dirty and I have to clean it. Well it's a pain to clean the solar panel with the cage on it because the door for the cage is on the opposite side. It's also nice not to have open up a cage every time you want to test your feeder, change the battery or adjust feed times.

$70 may seam like a lot but if you do the math in the amount of corn you loose to coons per year you will come out way ahead. Coons can easily spin out a 100#s of corn a month. 100# a month is going to cost you around $12 or $144.00 a year. Most people don't realize how much corn they are loosing to coons. I've had a #1000 feeder emptied in a month by coons and that feeder had a Eliminator plate on it. I have 15 feeders with Eliminator plates and have had to put cages on all them that the coons could reach.

With all that said, I fully understand this isn't going to be for everyone.

I would only need 2, so spending $140, SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!

Interested for sure.....will it work on a directional too?

What's wrong with the $25 coon cage, been using them for years, no issues.

Even $15 if you want to go cheap.

Because they are junk if you have a decent amount of coons.... They are nothing but a coon jungle gym giving them something to hang on to while they spin it empty.






Even the full barrel ones with the 1x2" holes can get foiled. I had tgo go to 1"x1" and while they have been great, I'm always looking for a better spin on my spin units.

I don't buy the cheap one's, it was just a example. I buy the larger one with smaller openings. I set my traps every time I go out, keeping the population in check. I am getting pics of possums more than coons now and I have yet to trap one, but they don't climb for some reason.

I don't think so. It needs to have a standard 12v box like this one, the type of spinner plate doesn't matter. Most 12V control boxes are a standard size that measure about 9" X 7" when measured across the top of the box.

I just notice your pictures you posted. I believe it will work on that feeder in the last pictures.

[AntlerCollector]

Probably not, but I'm still interested in what you have.

[mev002]

Yes. If it for sure stops the coins, absolutely. I've lost a lot of corn to them critters... even with coon cages.

The last feeder is an ex lease members. My buddy and I are running Bighorns. One is a directional and three others are spinners like so..

Would it do anything to help with pigs shaking the feeders?
