Catweazle Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Walking the dogs today I saw a bunch of crows squabbling and hopping about excitedly, they ignored me and the dogs until we were very close, about 15yds. I had a look to see what they were picking up, someone had groomed a long-haired dog on the field and left clumps of fur on the grass. The crows were going mad for it, no kidding, they must have amazing eyesight. Something similar might work for you crow-shooters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 My neighbor has a long haired German Shepherd and whenever they comb it in the garden there are always a few clumps that get blown away then when i trim the trees at the end of the garden each year and dislodge the old nests they are packed with dog fur.

CZ550Kevlar Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 i phoned a local dog salon and the owner thought i was having a laugh, after she realized i was serious she said i can come along whenever i want and take as much as i want to for free just have to call her to make sure she has enough, i can even have pre-washed so it`s clean and not smelly. Apparently horse hair is attractive too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedd-wyn Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I used some lambs wool and some 53p pigs liver from Morrisons as bait on Saturday. Sounds like a weird combo I know but it worked, and I will be using it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
