Some are reluctant to reveal recipes. I used to feed Record Rack Breeder. If you find that, you will see a recipe made specifically for deer. I think they eat an average of 4lbs or so a day, give or take. They eat far less in winter and much more in the summer.

No not at all, perfect pellets we found that 600 was about the perfect number- feed burns out at 20% protein and 5.5% fat
This is what we feed now. I'm going to bump up the corn in my mix and see what happens. I get the corn as part of the lease payment so the mix I get is by the ton I just add the corn into the mix as I feed.

Do you feed in trough feeders? I have to back my molasses and soy oil down every winter so it flows better. Has anyone been feeding with maxrax?
Yes we use tube feeders for the adult deer. I cut the molasses off around the 1st week of Dec due to the cold then when the temp warms up enough ill push it hard during growing season so they eat more. Did try Maxrax wasn't impressed for the money it costs seemed to attract more birds with it.

Have any of you guys used Dried Distiller Grain or Soybean Meal? And what type of results have you had. Thanks in advance
