So while at the feed store buying protein pellets for my feeders yesterday they told me about Deer365. Its a high(20%) protein/ mineral mix that is waterproof I guess supposed to cap over when it gets wet and supposedly coons wont eat it. Looks like rice bran mixed with saw dust and smells like oatmeal. I bought some because I will try anything once. My question is does anyone else have any experience with it and I usually only feed out of timed feeders but not real sure how this will do in my feeders don't want it clogging up, everything Ive read about it they put it in a trough feeder or straight on ground like a mineral lick. www.DEER365.net

if it sounds too good to be true......
I can't imagine ANY deer feed that coons won't eat.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I guess water proof was a bad choice of words. Just says that it caps over when rained on and its not a pellet its just dust really. Not real sure what it has that repels coons but we will find out, Im headed to my camp tomorrow to put it and a camera out.

"Why do you ask"?
Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

$17 for 50 lbs. I put it out today, just poured it on the ground and gonna see what happens. If it really is coon proof then even at that price I will be switching to this because from looking at my camera pictures I would imagine coons are eating 25% or so of whatever I put out. I really wish it were turkey proof also.

There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??
