There are many different types of deer feeders available from retailers in Dallas. In fact there are so many that it can often be difficult to decide which precise one you need for your herd. This quick guide will tell you all you need to know for selecting the right feeder to keep your animals strong and healthy.
1. Local Laws
Hunting suppliers Archery Choice say that there are restrictions in some states to which feeders can be used for hunting, or even if feeders can be used at all. It is best to check your local state laws before you buy to ensure you are staying within the law.
2. Dietary Requirements
Certain types of game or animals in a certain situation, such as expectant mothers, have different food requirements than others. This may mean you need certain types of deer feeders such as protein feeders to give deer the nutrients they need or a combo feeder to distribute more than one type of feed. If your herd has some specific needs, look into what types of feeders are available that may be able to compensate for it.
3. Herd Size and Location
If you have a smaller herd or one that is kept in a smaller pen, a standing feeder may be right for you as it is smaller and quick and easier to fill up. If you have a larger herd or one that is scattered across a wider area, you may want a larger feeder or a road feeder attached to a vehicle that can spread feed across a wide pasture.
Before purchasing a feeder, double check laws in your area and consider the size, location, and dietary requirements of your game to ensure you find the right feeder for your specific needs and the animal’s health in Dallas.
