We only have 1 bear that frequents our place and I haven't seen it for a month or more. I'm thinking the birds will get to it first. We'll see.
Many of the Carbohydrates that you are feeding deer can kill them.

Already have the camera up.Your recipe seems so generalized I'm thinking it might need to be more specific if intending to test deer attracting ability. Deer can be picky.Peanut butter, creamy, crunchy?For your "oats" are you talking solid grain oats or rolled oats like in quaker oatmeal?You running white sugar or brown sugar?And the salt, Kosher, canning, sea, or iodized?My molasses is Blackstrap. Cracked corn would be from Purina scratch grains, so has some odd grains mixed in. Can do white or brown sugar, and choice of salt type.Winter snack bar: Peanut butter- 3 tablespoonsMolasses- 1 tablespoonsSugar- 3 tablespoonsOats- 3- tablespoonsCracked corn- ½ cupCinnamon powder- ½ teaspoonSalt (Preservative)- 1 teaspoonDirections:Mix together, heat in the Microwave for 30 seconds to soften it up if needed, then freeze in a small rectangular tin pan. Remove from the tin when hard and place it out at a well used deer trail and fire up the trail cam.I used rolled oats, rock salt, (i don't think it's that big of deal for the salt) White sugar, I would try brown but we're out at the moment. I used crunchy peanut butter cause that is what we had around I probably wouldn't purposely use that kind though. One thing I am not sure is how to keep it from molding... That could be a big problem since we are almost in constant deluge here on the wet side.
