We have a pile of cinder blocks that I thought would be useful for some "permanent" cubbies. What approximate dimensions should I build them to? Target species will be fisher, coon, and fox. Thanks.

A 160 BG will be just fine for fisher and coon. And I've caught a fair number of red fox In 160 trail sets. You just have to get the fox to commit. The forum Know It All according to Muskrat

They work great, the coon will be there waiting for you with it's head shoved into one of the holes fast asleep. Hard part is getting them in to where you need them. Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!
