Go to hunting board I had someone to take some pic of my boxes.Easy to make I can make one in 11 min 30 sec.Can they catch one.Catch three in one box in one night.No bull.I was making a box one night maybe thirty five ago and mess up on a box.I said well I will go ahead with it.It was a good thing.Catch 4 rabbits in 4 nights.I make all my boxes like that now.I was going to come out with a video on how to catch rabbit and there more than just the box.I better not.They want be no rabbits for people to hunt.

Search this board for pyramid trap. That's what I use and have alot of luck with them. Easy to build and setup.
I used the old fashion box traps before with very little luck and never had any luck with the metal have a heart traps!

The pyramid trap + half a delicious red apple. Works like a charm!!

Pryamid traps are alright I used them,but once you have master the box trap.You will used that pryamid to catch crabs.I do not see were there are better than box trap.Thats just me.Some say its better in the summer,but around here its unlawful to trap in the summer.You know when you have 7 rabbit pens and only used wild rabbits in them.You better know how to catch a rabbit.I sorry I don t used pryamid traps,not saying they want catch one.But take along time to make one and 30 dollors is cheap,but it seem to me what I did had, walk off reel easy.

Used to be a man around snowhill nc that had 700 boxes.They talk like he catch rabbits.Would not be nothing 100 rabbits a night.I ve seen his boxes easy to make.Different than my but neat looking.Some say the IRS and the lawmen catch him.Reel big trouble.
