Coon Feeder for pup training
Anyone have good ideas on making a coon feeder? I want to make one so I have a solid place to turn my pup over a hot track this spring/summer. I am looking for ideas that retard other animals such as grinners and other unwanted varmits from taking the bait.
We made some out of a 5 gallon bucket with a locking lid.We put a 1" 45 degree elbow on the bottom.We usually just put one elbow on it but 2 works also.Keep corn in it or they'll tear the bucket up.

car / truck tire still on the rim. Drill several 2" holes on the outside and fill with corn (not the thread side the outside of the tire). Never seen a grinner or deer on mine.

like he said tiers work great 2" holes in the sidewall of the tire i put three holes i put corn in a six gal bucket about 3/4 full and then a pound of sugar fill the bucket with water set it in the sun and let it sour then put it in the tire the smell will draw them for miles never see deer possum or even squirrels nothing but coon

Donīt make holes too big. Been too cold to ferment whole corn. Grinners, deer and turkeys will work on unfermented corn. Got pictures on trail camera of all of them but the holes are roughly 2" x 4".

it will ferment now just takes a little longer if you set in in the sun through the day and in a barn at night it won't freeze it will take about two weeks then put it in your tires

Go to the dollar store and pick up grape jelly jars. Poke a few small holes in the lids and duct tape them upside down to a tree. The jelly will slowly leak out and it should last 3 weeks to a month. Coons love it.
