[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1480261, member: 6897"] True ..... don't know about some of these mixes out there. Seems like it would be too easy for a deer to decide all he wants is soybeans and others want nothing but corn. One gets too much protein, the other not nearly enough. Most deer feeds are no better and really no different than anything else and are fiber based so are not high energy and often contain a low quality fiber. At one time deer pellets were primarily alfalfa. I've feed lay pellets the last few years just because I know they use soybean meal for protein, a high level of energy and have a higher level of both vitamins and minerals. Brute whole cottonseed sound good but as you said most time deer won't eat them so it's just a waste of money. [/QUOTE]
