Deer Droppings around feeders

[Pat Babaz]

I'm kinda bored and pondering this question: Why are there never any deer droppings around the corn feeders? If you look at a white oak the deer are hitting hard, you will find lots of droppings but I have never seen one pile at a corn feeder. The trail cams will show deer on the feeders for hours at a time and never any droppings. I figured the great minds of Salty Cajun could shed some light on this for me

I have them in , the thickets around my feeders. I think they hand in the thickets waiting on the feeder to go off.

I believe that the deer don't spend time there like they do at feed trees. At a feed tree they have to break open the acorn, sometimes, browse around, find good acorns, etc. At a feeder they come in "gobble up" the corn and move on.

Where we deer hunt in Oklahoma they crap all over in and around the corn. They some nasty critters

Cajun Deer are so worried about being shot at a feeder, they are anal retentive while at the feeder! HA!
