you are not kidding!  I have a dozen does that are corn addicts.  I feed right outside my office.  There are also about 50 turkeys on our land that come in and take over the feeding area.  There is something hilarious about 20 turkeys sprinting in to get the corn.  It gets quite chaotic.

Had a customer ask for turkey feed, I cautioned that they might become a problem and filled the order for his cute pair of turkeys.  Next visit was 'how do I get rid of sixty birds'.  Be careful out there

 Cheap deer corn from Walmart or Cabellas works just fine. I use the cracked corn once in a while because the quail love it.
