I like it! Nice video! Here’s an extra experiment. When you refill the feeder, leave one of your old sweaty shirts or other clothing around and test if the deer get habituated to your scent, such that they don’t consider you a threat, but perhaps associate you with the corn. Just a suggested experiment.

Did you use cement or just the purple primer?

[@findingthepuddles9610]

That is very cool, I have been thinking of making something out back for the family of deer there. I had no idea it could be that easy. Thank you for sharing, I will make one.

Super easy and very inexpensive.

[@NewEnglanderfrvr]

Love this! Deer are such beautiful animals.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Yes they are! I enjoy watching them and knowing that they're around our property regularly.

[@sterlingwilliams1459]

Have you had any problems with raccoons? I would think they would clean it out pretty quick.

[@garryrice1954]

I wondered that too. I would consider raising it a little higher out of the reach of a raccoon standing.

Excellent. Very informative 👍👍👍Thanks for sharing

Thanks for watching 🍻

Did that for about 2 seasons. and deer emptied it in 2 days. Your key to success and solvency is to limit the feed. I am currently using Capsule Feeders which have gotten too expensive at $1000 each- mine were purchased at $500 each. They do make a bottom feeder for about $560 which looks pretty good. My feeder is currently putting out 50#/week. 200#/feeder= 4 weeks. That beats the hell out of 50#/day.

Thanks so much.

Great Video! Thanks for sharing.

By the way, this video is from two years ago. Perhaps PVC pipe was much cheaper then. A friend gave me an old feeder, which was just a painted four foot section of six inch PVC pipe. I went to the store to buy additional pipe sections. The six inch wye piece alone as $65!! I opted for something cheaper and we’ll see how it works.

Very nice feeder. Simple but effective. When and if you build a pond have you consider having fish? But I guess it would be tricky keeping the felines away!

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

Once I finally build a pond (whenever that may be) I want to stock it with fish. Maybe some bass, bluegill etc. I’m thinking fishing, canoeing, skating, ice fishing etc. cats won’t bother them they’re too deep.

[@gdawg4ever119]

I’m going to use this exact design but I am going to put an L bracket or something under it for it to rest on. That way I don’t have to put a screw in the strap and the strap won’t be holding up all the weight.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

that would work great as the strap wears over time too. Thanks for the tip, I'm doin it.

[@johnnyharperscoutstable5386]

Ya forgot the treatment before cement. You feed them. They feed you…🐸🍺🔪🔥

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

They're working well Johnny I just gotta face them away from the prevailing winds so they don't fill up with snow.

[@BryanWard-p7e]

How much does it hold

[@dannynewman9206]

Man, that's p v c primer, not cement

[@nawtyshygirl6468]

He’s very suspicious 😂😂

[@billrelyea7016]

It was not cheap it cost me 95 dollars for 1.

[@HiddenSpringFarm]

I know right, nothing cheap anymore lol.

[@chevrelait]

is that from the dnr ticket? it’s illegal to feed here afik

[@allenward48]

That’s the same deer
