Originally posted by Peyton View PostStedman and TAMUK also did a study on deer dominance and social interactions at feeders. Basically, if there is only one feeder available the dominant deer will eat and the non dominant deer will eat little or none. When the dominant deer are full, they will leave and the group will follow.
When this study was published I already had 2 feeders per location because I noticed this pattern on trailcam. To feed the whole bachelor group of bucks there should be more than one feeder.
Adding a cottonseed feeder will increase the options and variety for the deer and helps to spread out the visiting group of deer.
We are going to experiment with a few of the trophy rock mineral blocks to see how they hit that - friend of mine bought 2 tons of them and his deer are killing it
