All our feeders have pens around them. They are circles with 12-14 hog panels each except one. We have 12 of these set ups and most of them have been in the same spots for 13 years now. We have noticed a drop off in the number of deer coming to some of the feeders. We have noticed that seeing bigger deer around some of them has completely stopped.
The one feeder that has no pen at all we just threw up 3 weeks ago, 80 yards behind the mobile home to possibly watch a few deer out the kitchen window. Well since we put it up the bucks are swarming around it. There are 7-10 bucks around it every time.
We do have a lot of hogs and cattle on the place.
My questions should we take some of the feeders and move them 100-150 yards from the pens and see what happens with the deer?
Don't over think it and not worry about it?
What are y'alls experiences with these type of situations?
