I use it for grey crow's, it's a great trap if placed in the right area, load it with rabbit's with the top off for a few day's, making sure there is always loads of grub for them to eat. Then some night after dark put on the roof. it should be well loaded the following day with bird's.

What are the dimensions of the ladder? Planning on making one but not having seen one I just don't know what size would be right

We have 3 in the club, the farmers are mad for us to put it on there land. Somewhere in the region of 600 greys and mags caught for the last 12mths. Two members working them, they love doing it so its great for the club. Ours is made of boxiron and it has an axle and wheels for easy transport. Dont know dimensions but could find out if you dont get sorted.

keep the run's 6" apart, and roughly a foot wide, wind a length of wire back around each of the run's in the center making each entrance 6"x roughly 6".
