Apr 2009 cental Pennsylvania Cervid: taxidermy |
My 24 adult buck, 16 adult doe, and 17 fawns (57 total) are currently eating 2500lbs every 2 weeks, sometimes it last 3 weeks if it's hot out.
I do not feed free choice. I feed only enough that their feeders are all full for 12-14 hours out of a day. I also give alfalfa hay and free surplus bread that I get that is left over from the local bread factory on a daily bases. I also get a lot of free sweet corn still on the stalk this time of year. I can take my machete and cut a pickup load everyday after the farmer picks the ears off he's selling.
