The idea of the Parlour Pot is one entrance for the animal to get in tempted by the bait. When it has its fill it exits by the parlour which drops down to form a trap. This is achieved by slightly weighting this false exit with lead so it has to make an effort to enter and closing after it. This is so effective in some states parlour pots must incorporate a completely separate opening to allow smaller animals to escape. The entrance hard eye is six inches wide allowing access to bigger animals.
I decided to add a parlour pot to my hobby chest.
