Rick, don't you find that more kills helps this more than anything. I think it is just a matter of them realizing you aren't taking it from them and they are going to get fed. The first 10 or so kills, I dropped the lure with half a quail on it. Some folks let them eat what they caught, but I tend to like to trade them off because they can eat an entire sparrow and still be hungry where I can trade them off to exactly how much I want them to eat that day.
