We use bread in ours. We go to a local bread store and they sell the old bread for (I think it is) $4.00/ x-large trash can (about a 30gallon or so) and we sometimes get the donuts or sweets. We just break up the bread and put it in the buckets. It takes about 8 boxes of donuts or 5-6 loaves of bread. They will wipe it out in about 2-3 nights. It is cheap and easy. One evening there was 5 kittens up the feeder tree, when we was gonna fill it.


Posted by GA DAWG on 07-11-2011 02:01 AM:

I tried the bread. Could buy a truck bed rounded over for 20 dollars. I think we used to big of feeders 55 gal drums. The stuff would start to ferment in a week or. Make the nastiest mess you ever saw.

Dog food....go to atwoods or tsc and buy the busted bags of mixed dog food. Or you can put corn with syrup on it. Thts works really good

maybe i'm being a tight wad,but $140 a month is alot of money to be spending on feeding coons.


Posted by john nannemann on 07-12-2011 02:42 AM:

coon feeding AND watering

frogs, crawdads, blackberrys, other dead animals, fish, bugs. i also decided to provide them with water via sloughs, branches, and the river. i've also growing out a crop of acorns for use later. since it's been hot i ain't even hunting so they can eat in peace.
all of this on zero dollars per month!!! natures bounty!
