Thanks for the good info everyone. I remember someone telling me the cottontails in UT were larger than those here in western WA (eastern cottontails, which is what I meant in my previous post, not western cottontails) but smaller is what I like to hear (for the coops at least). She has trouble holding on to eastern CTs but then again I only showed her a few. Too bad quail and pheasant are hard to come by (I wonder if there are any good numbers an hour or two away?) but ducks should be fun with the coops if we can find the right set up. Looking forward to seeing some of you there!
