It was a pretty good thread in 2015 so I figured with turkey season coming up and deer feeding season upon us we might as well get it fired back up for 2016.
Humper and I just got back from Christoval filling protein, alfalfa and corn feeders as well as upgrading the capacity of our water stations at 4 feedpens to 550 gallons each. Filling up 8 totes can take some time with the fillup off spigot taking 40 minutes per, but the HF dumps them in 2.5 minutes so its makes up for it. The 40 minutes does allow up to get some camp stuff doen while we wait but I wish we could make that part faster. Also added a few new higher capacity alfalfa feeders to our favorite pens and took the 55 gallon ones at those and added it to other to double their capacity.
It was a work filled weekend for 2.5 days, but it was nice to get it all done. Temps were in the low 80s but early am and later PM were nice! Place is greening up nice with the couple of inches of rain. Heard we got 1" with Monday with more coming yesterday and today.
We are starting off nicely.
New hay feeders with a full three strand capacity.
Moved these and put them together to double the capacity of our other pens.
2 of the 4 new double tote setups with Humper running the hose!
Oh yeah...we saved some turkey eggs and protein/corn as well with 9 caught in one night. Adding 15 traps to our current 14 and gonna try to carpet bomb them every trip down.
Here's to a great season fellas! Good luck to yall chasing Tommy and friends ..
