Hi everyone, I am looking to buy a few deer feeders that I will be putting in my buck pens! What is out there and what are the best ones people are using? Thanks for any and all information, JIM SIMONSON

I have had the 4 stall Thunder Valley feeders for about 8 years now and besides having to replace the bird stoppers in the front they are as good now as day one.

They always have if they go. Its a long way out there this year so not sure they will make the trip. They donate some to Nadefa at times.
If you have the $$ Mike Ford sells an automatic one from Preiert that you might look into. Not sure his best contact, but can find him or Lori Ford on facebook to contact them.
I found that making your own is very simple and you can save a little money, especially if you have some old game feeders around. I modeled mine after the thunder valley feeder and it worked very well when I was using is but I prefer a trough feeder that way I can keep a little closer eye on them. Ill post a picture of it when I get home tonight.
I just made this feeder will tell you if it works for the bucks or not I might have to put more of a lip on the end to keep feed from falling out I will see! JIM SIMONSON
I got the hopper from a friend and made the feeder tubes Maybe it will work maybe it wont! Thats deer farming at its best!
