Deer Feeder

admin

I got tired of climbing the the step ladder to add corn so I made this set up. Plus it greatly reduced the Racoons. This is at my folks place, they have a nice spot in the woods so there is plenty of wildlife to view. Attached Images

Reply:You can't see it in the top left picture. The barrel(full of corn) feeds down to fill a bowl underneath, through the fitting in the bottom of the barrel.The whole unit is suspended in the air. That's so the other critters like coons and squirrells can't get at the corn. I've made a few for friends of mine. Not with the nice winch set up though. Nice touch Reebs, gonna have to borrow that idea. Hope you don't have bears, they'll make a mess of it. Around here wheat easy to get, bears don't seem to like it as much as the corn.Last edited by WolfmanJack13; 03-29-2008 at 07:23 AM.Latest Toys Miller 180 Mig and Elite Mask!!Wright Welder 225ACShop OutFitters 20/20 Bending SystemHypertherm 380 Plasma30 Years of Sparking (Electrical & Welding)
Reply:WolfmanJack13 explained it perfectly (sorry I forgot to include how it works)Joker If you look at the bottom of the first picture you can see a black motor under the barrel. It has a timer and slings corn twice a day. Wolfman my folks live in West Virginia I have not seen a bear yet and would love to, on my terms not its.reber

Reply:Forest rats!I like it I have never heard that one before. I would not want to ride in a lot of places that are polluted with deer. Where do you live sunline?
