Recall | 196. Trapping Wild Pigeons

Listen Later

Joel Ebstein of ⁠California Gun Dogs⁠ joins me to break down his experience and processes when it comes to trapping pigeons in an urban setting!

  • How did this hustle start?
  • Starting --> Training --> Selling
  • "Legitimizing" the hustle
  • The renewable resource
  • Unloading the trapped birds
  • Transitioning the trapped birds into homers?
  • The cage setup (⁠Tomahawk cage⁠)
  • Multiple compartments within the cage
  • Food, Water, Shade
  • Reasons you aren't catching any birds!
  • Food options? Which is best?
  • Bycatch
  • Trapping in rural areas outside of the city
