I wouldn't go any smaller than 8 panels that are 16' long! The deer need a little room so one deer doesn't just take over the pen!

Feeder pen size?

Built two round 8 panel pens last year to keep hogs off protein. Both pens have spin feeders as well as free choice protein. Rarely see more than three deer feeding inside pens at a time. It's not unusual to see 8-10 deer piling in under an unpenned feeder. Obviously (as evidenced by this thread) deer behave differently from one place to another. Wish I would have used ten panels, but it was tough enough driving 8 t-posts in rocksprings.Last edited by JMalin; 02-26-2015, 11:38 PM.
