Has anyone ever had good luck with these by their feeder? I have never witnessed a deer eating or licking the ones we had put out. Are there any good ones on the market? I know Academy has some smaller ones that are apple and acorn and etc

I placed an Academy block in a feed pen I'd had up for a month and by the next week I had the cows jumping over my feedpen to get at it and my corn.
I moved it off to another feeder that didn't have a feedpen and there it sat.....all season with not noticeable difference except maybe some rain affecting it. No deer or hog pics of them using it...It's probably still sitting up there.Last edited by Smart; 07-13-2008, 12:51 PM.

we feed the paymaster proetin blocks in mason. 33 lb block and im not sure what the protein percentage is. i think its 24 or somethin like that. they will eat one to two blocks in a week. i put some out on my leas ein crane and nothin touches them. idk why but they dont. the ones i put out theer are purina deer chow blocks. none of the deer i have seen eat salt blocks. so i dont put those out.
if you really wanna see alot of deer eat them get some of the paymaster blocks and put some blocktopper on it. they will even eat whatever is left in the dirt after the block is gone and make a hole in the ground.
