        How much do you plan to feed? We feed 5000lbs a month and delivered filling 3 feeders is $320 a ton. The cheapest they will eat is what I would go with. If they won’t eat it the price is irrelevant.

            That is super cheap. Where are you getting it for $320/ton?

              With anything “new” it will take a bit for them to try and eventually get hooked on it!

                  RaxMax 20% available at Brush to Bay and other dealers 14.99 per bag at B2B can get bulk or bagged...cotten seed, peanut, alfalfa, vitamins and minerals pacage, 9 % fiber, all in each bite, and a probiotic to aid in digestion..a lot of thought and nutritionalist guidance was put into this feed milled in Weimar Texas at MG feeds.. all feed is not the same and in an unprecedented drought we had one deer jump from 150 to 186" and another 164 we found sheds to 198" if you just want to keep em alive feed whatever you can buy cheap if you want to grow trophy deer lets just say you get what you pay for as with anything! Best of Luck guys!

                    I fed 30k pounds of 20% West feeds last year. I'm going with Gorman Red Chain 17% Buck Creek this year. Its a couple dollars cheaper and I think free range its not really worth the extra % and $.

                        I will take a picture of the tag next time I buy.

                          I get my feed from Angelo Pellets in San Angelo. Their feed has a higher TDN than most and also one of the more affordable feeds out there.
