Bruce's Journal

[Mike CHS]

Every time I used marshmallows, I got the skunk (twice)

 

[Bruce]

I don't have any marshmallows, guess I need to find something else.
I did catch something .... Cassie a 4 year old EE. I don't need to trap her, she is very food driven

You might need to set the trap after the chickens have gone to bed so they don't keep eating your bait. Although the trap should smell chicken-y to the skunk now, so maybe that's a bonus?

You don't have marshmallows?! (JK, I'm out too. my kids always eat them all the day or two after I get them.)

So you trap a live skunk, then what? Relocate and you get to wear skunk perfume? Or shoot from a distance?

 

[Bruce]

Not sure Bay. I was hoping since it is young it might travel to the woods without spraying. DW saw it out in the backyard when she came home yesterday.

I did set the trap at night but since the skunk wasn't interested it was still available when the chickens came out through the alpaca door after their auto door opened.

Nuit took the girls out into the run for the first time today

Skunks are cute and pretty with their black and white fur, but I wouldn’t want one hanging out in the yard or barn.

You will have a feed and egg eater next thing you know. They carry rabies too....

Mr. @Bruce,

You can always paint a white stripe down one of your cats like Pepe Le Pew:

Would I be considered old if I remember watching that episode on TV?
