Coyotes at feeder

[TexasLongball]

This is the first season that I've seen as many coyotes staying in a feeder for long periods of time. I had 3-4 that would spend 45 minutes to an hour in my newly built feed pen every morning and evening. Some would even lay down.

Well I unzipped one and haven't seen any since. That might change when I go to the lease this weekend.

Good luck with your problem. Traps might be the way to go with that bunch.

You need to be shooting early and often.

12 gauge with buckshot ,unplugged, u should put a dent in this behaviour

I am on this lease. The den has to be close by as I sat at that stand Monday morning. They were howling, barking and growling just before enough light to see. Then bam they were gone and I never saw them.

How can we locate the den? Destroy all of them at once!

Coyotes have already left the den.

Coyotes have already left the den.

So they only den up while having pups? I don't know much about coyote habits. Never had to concern myself with them till now.

I got them too. Don't feed rice bran, they love that stuff. I ended up scooping it all up to get rid of it.

Yeah they only den up until the pups are weaned off of their mother. Another thing to keep in mind is a lot of times by killing coyotes you're actually just helping the population. When the coyote population is low in an area female coyotes will have more pups.

I'd suggest using a centerfire rifle or a shotgun. Unless your coyotes down there are different than ours. Pellet guns and .22's are weak sauce. You'll wound them and make them smarter and harder to kill by doing that.
