This was a really great tutorial. Thank you for posting. Hope your new Granddaughter gets a chance to enjoy all her Papaw’s farm has to teach her.

That's real good. Good. Job

[@averageoutdoorguy2737]

Awesome

[@williamtobias8948]

That's just what I've been looking for. I do the exact same thing.with the supplement feed in what I call My nursery where all the doe's and fawn's stay. All you need is salt and corn to bring em in.but there are no benefits. Thinks and I will be using your design, kind of what I had in mind.

[@hoosierhardwoodsoutdoors3141]

Super easy and I just used scrap wood I had laying around. A lot cheaper than buying new. Best of luck with your feeder. 👍

Could you tell me what the dimensions are. I love what you are doing

[@hoosierhardwoodsoutdoors3141]

2 foot by 4ft. I had a half sheet of plywood so I just made the frame work for that dimension. Thank you and I appreciate you following along on this channel and let me know if you have any other questions.

How often do you have to refill it?

[@hoosierhardwoodsoutdoors3141]

Depends on how bad the coons hit it. LOL. Typically a 50lb bag will last a week to week and a half or so.

[@liprippingwithblake5613]

@@hoosierhardwoodsoutdoors3141 so I have one I just built that is a plastic barrel cut in half, I assume it will hold 3 bags of corn in each side. I was hoping to get close to 3-4 weeks out of it without having to go in and fill it.. does that sound reasonable? I also will get in the stand a few nights and see about putting the coons night night.

Does the corn get wet

[@hoosierhardwoodsoutdoors3141]

Unless its raining on a very windy day then the edges might. I have had no trouble with wet corn.
