The deer are working it over big time. Lots of doe & fawn, but no good bucks (yet).

Dang Jim. That's buck heaven right there.
My feeder is my "spot & stalk" feeder.
Spot em from the back porch, then get down wind, and sneak up on em. :)

If that thing were full of water, it looks like it would irrigate about half of Texas!

[[[ "If that thing were full of water, it looks like it would irrigate about half of Texas!" ]]]
Richard, level full with a full regulator it will hold 1700 lbs of whole kernel corn (34 50 lb bags).
The barrel attached to the bottom is a regulator with three troughs, and it only holds about 20 lbs in it.
I generally only fill it once a year.

WOW Rick. 1700lbs.. Glad you only have to do that once a year. A man I know has 6 X 1,000lb feeders. Due to terrain it's a "bag it in" situation as well. They fill 3 times a year. How do you keep the piggies from running the deer off?
Yip In Texas, fill the feeder = fill the freezer. :-D

P.S.
The regulator was an after thought add on. Without it the animals stand down there 24/7, and eat me out of house & home. LOL

Cody, believe it or not, the deer & pigs in this country get along with each other pretty good. The deer still don't like the pigs, but they do (somewhat) tolerate them.

I have never had deer stay when the pigs show-up. Feeder or not, the deer blow and go. It has been the demise of many a hog pushing some deer away I was watching.
