[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 5321569, member: 10006"] With the exception of releasing crickets and killing raptors, many of the items Bgoodman posts we've successfully done the last decade. On their own, all of them helped a little but the biggest influencer has been incrementally growing the local flock to a point not even mortality can keep up with reproduction. Just think how many nests of 12-14 eggs a single skunk, diller, coon, or grinner can remove. Add several of the other items listed and it does indeed make a difference. If you've got enough land to manage, pick a few of the items on his list and start there. If you don't have much/any land to manage, just start working on the nest raiders (easy) and consider not killing the only breeder within earshot the first week every spring (difficult...I get it). Timestamp is correct. Let this guy do his thing and best case you got 144-168 eggs from him and his girlfriends before the nest raiders get going. Kill'im day1 or even week 1 and all bets are off...and that's even before the egg bandits begin their thievery. [ATTACH type="full"]132432[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
