Last few times out the javalinas have been moving my deer off the feeder. How can you make them find greener pastures? Without giving them a bullet. Guess put up a feeder pens.

Feed pens is the only thing I can think of. We go through cycles with them. See a bunch shoot a few they leave, but eventually come back. We have shot 3 so far this year, going to see how good they are put through a jerky gun.
They aren't bad eating, the skinning is the worst part.

Heres what you do... put up some no Javi allowed signs all over your feed area... you may want to put a picture of them with an X on it since they don't speak English

Feed pen. I shot a doe next to a Javi last week so they weren't too bothered by them.

"Off" as in the deer haul butt outa there? Our place they just make them nervous. My daughter shot a good buck with javelinas at the feeder also last Tuesday afternoon.

If just one Jav shows the deer hang around. But when the herd (8 -15) jav's show up the deer move off

Large feed pen will solve your problem.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?
