Using proteins for subarctic hunting feeders

Routing season is long and bucks will soon begin to shed their antlers.  With regard to the management of horns is important to consider the five necessary categories for maximum growth; protein, energy, minerals, vitamins and water.  Adequate nutrition during the months of February and March are especially important, because deer which should replace the body fat and muscle lost during the winter months before growth horns can reach their potential.  Now is the time to start thinking about how providing protein to the deer in the ranch or lease.  Inadequate protein intake will reduce development of horns and could affect the development for several successive years.  They help you manage the excellent results during the hunting season to provide protein.

Many hunters, land managers and biologists believe that a 16% protein food source is necessary for that bucks achieved a maximum growth of horns and to achieve maximum production fawn.  Protein levels are of utmost importance at certain times of the year.  For the growth of the horns, this period is late winter until the end of the period of growth of horns. For the production of Fawn, the period when the levels of proteins are most critical for is during fetal development and breastfeeding. And, in general, protein levels are higher in native forage during the spring and fall and are lower during the summer and winter.  It is no coincidence that horns growth and fetal development Fawn coincide with seasonally high level of protein in the spring.

But periods when proteins is limited, as during the summer and winter? Deer can compensate for this seasonality of proteins through recycling of the protein, but this means that the proteins will be used for critical functions in the first place.

Although deer can survive a dry spring, bucks will produce antlers that are smaller than their potential and not overrides fawns before birth or shortly thereafter to leave them. Protein levels are not critical to the survival of deer, but "too much" protein can permanently increase the size of horns, rates of flatterers, and in most cases.

If you are interested in supplementing the white-tailed deer, remember that winter and summer are the critical moments in relation to the availability of protein, but provide additional protein during the spring and autumn will improve the conditions of body of deer on his property and put them in better shape for the difficult periods.

The best practice of deer management is maintaining the population in line with the carrying capacity of the Habitat and provide additional choice food. In this way, the food is really supplementary. A herd of Red Deer well-feed will be very productive, often produce 60-100% crops chamois. This means that 50 can regularly produce fawns for 30-50 each year.

Deer feeders will continue to play a key role in the management of deer in the coming months.   Feeders of corn for feeds protein Exchange will attract deer to its stand and providing adequate nutrition to his flock during this period of growth.  With a single Deputy deer feeders can be easily transformed to meet the needs of corn and protein.  Protein tubes are interchangeable and designed for distribution, ensuring optimum potential for up to four animals with virtually no damage of feed horn.  Our feeders are considered the best in the market due to its unique design and durability.  2000 Standard sizes available in 600 lbs, 1000 lbs, lbs this 2 1 unit offers solutions to provide the nutritional needs throughout the year and maximize the experience of hunting.
