With that kind of pricing you should be turning them away by the truck load.

In The Carolinas you would be lucky to get $25.00 a head for them. Sounds a bit suspicious to me.

Of course they would have to be caught In Mo to be legal. Since you would be dealing with the Lacy act for any out of state greys.

Good luck

ain't many greys here Beav. Not in my area anyway. Be hard for me to catch one in a cable.

Not many greys at all, I don't use cables but I have caught by the foot, Where you located foxpen??

Well, you'd have to hang the cable pretty low to stand a chance at a grey, with a small loop. With the entanglement restrictions, the best locations are off-limits. You CR a grey, you deserve $200. Better watch your hands though, them buggers is mean and fast. Might need that $200 for a little first aid.

Have never seen a grey around here.

I talked to a guy In the know and he said they were on the up and up. But also said there were very few If any Greys In the that area. You would think Reds would be a better choice. They would sure give the hounds a better run.

Reds will give a faster paced race, but to lovers of the chase, a grey race makes for better music. Lots of twists and turns. With ample cover, a grey fox can punish a pack of hounds (he can fit places they can't fit easily). Unless there are coyotes around, then your grey race lasts around a minute. If he is not in a place he can stay in thick cover that coyotes can't fit through, then he is not far from a hole and he knows how to use it. This is the attraction of the pens to houndsmen. In places over-run with coyotes in the last twenty years or so, it is a place where you can actually get fox to run. Doesn't have deer, doesn't have traffic, two very important considerations as well. It is my experience that if you can find a red outside a pen to run, your dogs are going to be in a lot of traffic, and if they survive that, they are going to be in somebodies yard barking under a shed. Coyotes run good, but outside of the wire, the race goes out of hearing too much to be enjoyable. Inside, they run fast and in big circles, and when they get tired they tap out to one of their buddies. Strings out the dogs, and splits them up. Grey fox keeps them all in a nice tight pack. Grey fox will teach dogs to follow a track way better than anything else, if you are looking to train pups.

I don't understand why they have to be Cr'd, why not foot trapped with no damage? Or is that impossible? Not much for greys here either, I have 1 to my name in 5 years of trying.

Seen my trapping partner double on em bout 5 years ago. Ain't seen one since.

I have never seen a grey fox around here, and very few red fox. Have never caught either one. If I remember right, when I took the class for the cable restraints, the bottom of the cable had to be 6 inches off the ground, that would be a little high for a grey fox wouldn’t it?

Ya we want greys for the above reasons and also because if pushed hard enough they will tree.

Saw one smashed on I-44 a few weeks ago. I think it was around Sullivan, MO.

I could probably catch 2 of them Farley easy right now just in my back 10 acres behind my house but they'd be in footholds and I'm pretty close to sullivan mo.

Btt

Btt

I catch 1 almost every other day! In cages. I have let every one go, too bad there's no legal way to help you out!
