A year in the life of a farm

Elgato, you got it going on. Im assuming these are La deer. You are definetly showing the potential of La deer.

Well I think its pretty darn neat that 200 inch deer have become a reasonable expectation among native piney woods deer on your place. Im 5 years into my chicken chit experiment and have NO DOUBT it is working. I have 40 tons coming tuesday even though its a little late in the year.

Agreed. Gotta love native deer!

3rd pic down. Buck on the left. Either that's two bucks back to back, or you have a 3 legged deer.

Dang, I had to put my glasses on but I see what you are saying. I'll post another pic of that buck though cause he's as big as he looks.

It brings new meaning to the phrase ''thats some good chit'. I think your timing is great right before fall plots go in.

I think that is 2 deer lined up almost perfectly. You can see 2 right ears if you look close. The back buck is a hair wider.

How have I looked at this a million times and not subscribed... I'm in!

I have seen a general improvement in my deer. The real convincing thing though was Two mature bucks that i have known well. Neither had done much. One was a typical 9 with a kicker on his g3 that had barely been legal width by age 8. the other was a spindly horned 6 year old that was wide but each deer would go maybe 110inches. After a full winter and spring on the chicken chit, they just blew up at 7 and 9. The now 7 year old eightpt now put on small G4s but blew mass away! He went from 110 to 150s in that year. the 9pt got crazy mass and went from 13 inches inside to 16 inside and probably high 140s. remember he is 9 years old and never scored over 115 in his life.

By Chicken Chit, I am guessing y'all are using it as fertilizer?

Yes. We started hammering our food plots with it. Lots of fringe vegetation gets it too like vetch, clover, honeysuckle, youpon, etc.

Are farm is right across the street from the biggest chicken chit egg farm in Texas. No doubt it is some great stuff if you can get past the smell.

What rate are you using per acre? we used a lime cart with acceptable results but calibration was rudimentary . I think next yr. I'm going to pay the $100 fee per load to get an appropriate cart. I think we were putting about 200lbs/acre if memory serves.

[BIG BONE]

how much yall paying for chicken crap?
i was just quoted $54 a ton delivered and spread
and the guy was telling me they spread 2000lbs per acre
