    Milo in spin feeders

    How does straight milo do in spin feeders? I am worried the seed is so small that it will just pour out or the coons will spin it out.

    I want to put some in our deer feeders this offseason to keep the turkeys around.

        What kind of spin plate do you have on your feeders? Turkeys like corn and milo, and you could also throw in some hen scratch too.

          We mix milo and sunflower in our corn feeders to help feed the quail as well to keep doves around all year, and turkey around in the spring time.

            Agreed on mixing it/buying mixed with something such as corn.

              Just choke up on your spinner plate a little and you'll be fine.

                If I have learned anything from this site.. You have to mix it with Pea Gravel

                    Works great with eliminator spin plate. Been feeding turkeys for years.

                      Worked great when I hunted Brady. Took up zero space basically

                      I could put 6 bags of corn in feeder and 1 bag of milo. A little on top of each bag. It’s so small it just fills in the gaps in the corn. We were covered in turkeys all year long

                            Filled them up 50/50 well mixed. Will be back there in 5 weeks to see how it held up.
