5 Tips to Building and Maintaining a Deer Feeder


!±8± 5 Tips to Building and Maintaining a Deer Feeder

Although it may not be for everyone, hunting is a popular activity pursued by a lot of individuals. For hunters, setting up the bait, waiting for the animal to come close enough and fall for it, and chasing them to hunt them down is a thrill that is unparalleled to any other activity.

Hunting the Whitetail Deer Buck

The whitetail deer is one of the most elusive creatures to hunt down. Therefore, hunters need deer feeders to lure them in before the hunt can begin. And here's a tip: waiting for them in camouflage for hours under the sun and finally having them come close enough to the feeder so that one can hunt them down, is a process that is only understood by those who indulge in such an activity.

Importance of Setting up a Deer Feeder

• Deer feeding equipment is a very useful for hunters and zoo keepers alike. It should be made into an appropriate design in order to attract the animal to it long enough.

• Some deer feeding equipment is reasonably priced. Hunters usually use these feeders to lure one deer at a time. However, if you are looking to attract more than one animal, you might need a bigger deer feeder.

• Make sure that your deer feeder is high enough for tall deer. It is also important to ensure that the food inside the trough used in the feeder is kept free of dirt and water.

• The food should be dry when the animal reaches it. For this, a roof is required which should be high enough to accommodate the animal.

• As long as you can make the area surrounding the deer feeder safe enough for the animal, you should be able to attract deer. A big deer feeder may require a fence surrounding it to keep other animals at bay, though. And this fence should be low enough for the deer to jump over it to enter the feeder ground.

If your feeder requires a stable foundation, then you can dig holes on four corners and fill them with sand, cement and water mixture before fitting in the legs of the feeder into them. See what's appropriate for your area.
