    Just another feeder build

    Made this out of a 55 gallon HEB grill that was given to me as scrap. Have about $9 in 1x1 metal, $30 lid, $20 funnel and $50 lower unit in it. Welded up the original lid and used roof caulk to seal it and a few rust spots. The back guard is the original grill surface. Used a moultrie directional lower unit that only throws about 10-15'.

    Just set it up this week at a new Jager Pro trap location. We will see how she does!

            It's a pig trap. I don't want the pigs knocking around the feeder when they are trapped. Cut a hole through the horse panel for the directional feeder to throw. Feeder is wire tied to the horse panel too.

              Ya, I starting using the ones with the wire in conduit in addition to trapping a lot. When raccoons start showing up on camera I will trap them for a few nights. This eliminates the problem for a while.

                I just bought me some of those coon foot traps that I've seen on here and I am just starting to thin them out.

                    trap armed

                    I got the camera going today. Texted the "close gate" code to the camera and it took about 18 second before the actuator actually closed the gate. A little slow for my liking, but it will have to do. Now I need some pigs to show up!
