Spring and Summer Nutrition for White Tailed Deer: The Importance of Year-Round Supplemental Feed
Texas is known for its iconic white-tailed deer, making it a hub for hunting enthusiasts. What you might not know is that effective deer management relies on understanding the animals, their requirements, and their struggles. A balance of genetics, age, and nutrition are required to grow healthy deer with big antlers. While a ranch cannot necessarily change the existing genetics or control the age of the deer their neighbors harvest, they can improve the availability of nutritious feed. Spring and summer nutritional intake are also important for both does and bucks alike, making good year-round nutrition a vital aspect of maintaining a healthy deer herd.
