Anybody ever use these to put infront of their camera for deer to eat? Was wondering how they eat them..I know deer love alfalfa,i was wanting an alternitive to corn,squrriels and crows eat alot of it..Im putting my cams back out next weekend after the juvy hunt and I think im gonna give them a try.THey are in small 2inch x 2inch cubes,my dad buys them for his horses,and its like $12 for a 50lbs bag..I think the deer should tear them up in the late season like this.

I tried it a couple years ago. I put it in my feeder, and the deer paid no attention to it at all. They more or less kicked it to the side and trampled it. The deer in my area don't have a clue what Alfalfa is, so they are not used to it. If you can find the alfalfa pellets (not the cubes) and mix it with corn, I think you would have better success. jmo
