Curious about consumption rates others are seeing.

I am at about 65-75% of normal consumption rates for the past 2 weeks. Prior to the recent rains, consumption was normal/100%. My deer average about 2.25 lbs per deer, per day. Spring is closer to 1.5-2 lbs and summer can get up towards 3lbs if it is hot and dry. -

Mine is off compared to what it was post rut but up a bit now in the past 2 weeks even with rain and food plots. With good forbs, browse and food plots it is around 1.5#/hd/day. I feed L/E.Comment

I just went to the ranch this weekend and on my little place they have gone through 450 pounds in the past 3 weeks which is really high for my norm. Thats just a considerably higher than consumption this time last year. Post rut they never really hit it to hard. I feed L/EComment

Ours are hammering it right now. We are going through about 250-300 lbs a week right now between two feeders on 200 acres. For reference, we are feeding Double Down.Comment

We have fed 1000-1250# per week since February. On pace to feed 4 tons more this year. We are feeding Purina AntlerMax, first year with the protein. In the past we fed L&EComment

Our consumption of Protein is down quite a bit.
They are only eating about 5 tons a week.
They are however eating another 1.5-2 tons of cottonseed as well.
Last year we didn't supply cottonseed and they were eating about 8 tons a week of protein.Comment

There are some with cottonseed in the pens and that seemed to get hit harder the past few weeks. Strange how the feed pattern goes.Comment
