We are moving to a bigger space. This field has 2 small ponds and 2 big ponds. The big ones are off limit, the small ones are fed by spring coming off the hill and drains into the big ones. I sent a lay-out of the area we can use, plus an idea for pens I had. (Yellow squares represent gates) Runways are the small spaced areas.
1st. Is it wise to include the small ponds inside the enclosure?
2nd. Do you think Im using this space to its fullest?
3rd. Will this work for does, bucks & breeding?
We are looking at keeping our numbers under 65 deer.. Pens 1, 2 & 3 are about 300Ft X 120ft so I could certainly make more pens but smaller in size! Ultimately we want to be able to have 15-20 shooters at any one time, as well as 30+ does. With a breeder or 2 seperate as well.
This area is about 300 yards by 250 yards
