pvc feeders

So I built a couple 4inch pvc feeders about five feet tall . I'm going to corn them up this weekend and see if the does bring a big boy around come November . I'm wondering how long the feed will last with 6-10 deer hitting it .

Full that would be around 3 1/2 gallons only.  If 10 deer are hitting that, it isn't going to last very long.  Maybe a day if that.

I built one out of 6" PVC holds almost 40lbs of grain. It is about 5' tall. Lasts for awihle.

My 55 lb bag of sweet cob will not get through one night. 10-15 deer.

Be advised I have heard from others if you use like a molasses based feed they will plug up if wet weather or it is cold.

well I may have to add a 55 gallon drum to one of the feeders to make it a couple of weeks !

If you make the outlet tiny, a few kernels at a time, it may last a couple of days.  Peas (culls from Spokane Seed) would be a better choice.  High protein and fewer digestive issues for the deer.  They are usually cheaper than corn if a few ton are picked up.  Put out a good vitamin/mineral mix to go with it, next years fawn crop and antler growth will show it.
