Thread: Pig traps

the one up at dairy farm worked a treat...basically four gates 12foot long or longer all together to make a long box gate height and width,both ends blocked in...and a opening with smaller gate hindged at top so it sloped inwards at something steeper than 45 degrees,it was about half width of pen with a wee side wall inside pen,pigs pushed under to sloping bit ,get inside and it drops back down,they cant get under it as its now sitting on ground,propped open wit ha stick would allow piglets in and out but soon as taller pig touches gate it is able to fall down again as prop stick falls away. DO NOT bait with meat or will be full of hawks.
