Fail Proof Deer Feeder Invented

[Rattler]

Oh my head hurts.....did I say great buck in my first post???? Great Buck!

Lets take a pile of corn setting out in the pasture for example, the aflatoxin is already there in the corn, now add humidity and it begins to grow, it grows best at humidity levels between 15 and 50 percent according to Tamu studies, the first couple days wont be that bad for wildlife in general, no different than deer eating out of a normal motorized feeder. Now lets say that same pile is there at the end of week two and has had 14days exsposed to moisture levels that occur daily, it runs the risk of aflatoxin levels be much greater than the 20 to 100ppb than on day one, at week three the levels could be way over 2000ppb and cause death in turkeys and major liver damage in deer, that they may or may not recover from.....

...and how do we know that the afloxin, I mean aflatoxin, is already in the corn?

Wow every time I log on to here someone is arguing over the stupidest stuff, I think I will just go away to another site with less B.S. and I'm not talking about college degrees.

Well said . Why do so many threads have to end up in an argument ? Lets all act like adults here and respect one another . No offense guys because there are some supper people here but.......this is why I do 95 % of my surfing on http://www.archerytalk.com/vb/

Can't we just get along here ? What chance does our wonderfull sport have if we can't stop fighting among one another ?

Hey Randy, I tried to email it to you, dont know if it made it ...

Its is basically in all the corn, even the corn we eat and alot of nuts....per USDA guidelines they are allowed to have 1 part per billion for human consumption, they have some pretty stringent testing procedures for it. the more aflatoxin the corn has will dictate what it is used for 1 part per billion for humans, 20ppb for animals with a warning label declaring the level, over 100ppb cannot be sold as wildlife feed, if you happen to buy corn that is not labeled as wildlife feed, just plain bag of corn, chances are it has a higher content and cannot be sold specifically as wildlife feed....but is still sold because of loop holes in the regulations... hope this helps...

what about temperature? surely a pile of corn in a cold enviroment is safer than one in a warm, humid enviroment. just a question

[Burnadell]

Okay, Dale, I give. You are right. My buddies, including the CPA, are stupid and uneducated...they should be banned from hunting forever for dumping corn on the ground that will be eaten within 3-4 weeks. And you guys who are putting already infected aflatoxin corn in those 1500-2000 lb. feeders should have to forfeit your bows, firearms, and your firstborn child because the disease grows more rapidly in hot humid storage conditions, such as in bins.

Man after reading all of that I sure am glad he shot that deer & saved him from getting sick!

[Deer Tracks]

Wow, guys...I'm glad we can all respect each other and talk about our feelings

LOL, Courtney! Dale and everyone else, let's kill this thread. No hard feelings here. We all get pumped up and over-react if we get our feelings or pride stepped on, no different than a live campfire. We still share the love of the same sport, but we all have elbows, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ s, and opinions.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

[greenflag]

I certainly was not offended & hope I didn't offend anyone with my twisted sense of humor.

I agree ! Man you guys did give me a good laugh though . Kind of reminds me of two obese guys sitting on a couch fighting over who has the best football team when neither one of them could run to the fridge much less play any kind of sport . Glad to see things simmering down here .

Remeber we are all sportsman and sportswomen representing the same love for the great outdoors .

Yes very nice deer and congrats to you again ......

now now everyone go look in the mirror and repeat after me ..." I love myself I am a confident person I am a good person I love all my friends on TBH they are beautiful just like me ( well some)".. Now repeat many times then count to ten and if that doesnt work just go hunting..

Sometimes a good long drawn out debate is what it takes to educate those that don't know all the facts. I think if nothing else this particular debate will make me give more thought to the topic at hand. I will do my research and then make up my mind on what to do about it. Meanwhile thanks for bringing it up for review!
