I Feed Indian Corn. The deer love it and all the colors make them stay at the feeder longer.

That's a dificult pic for me to age by. Can't really tell neck or belly size, but he looks leggy, has a bit of a paunch, and I don't think his neck is as skinny as it looks in the pic. I'd say 3.5 years.

edited to add: So used to adding the .5 to a deer's age....he'd probaby by 3 years and a couple months if that's a recent pic.

It is a recent picture, I had one of the animals rub up against the camera hard enough it opened the thing up and batteries were out of it and everything... I put it back on and hope to get more pictures in a few weeks I only had it out that one night and didnt get many pictures.

It looks to me like a three year old judging by the curve of the muzzle (nose) and by the the way he stands on his hooves. the older deer get, the more their ankle joint tends to kind of angle out more.

I would guess middle aged, but better pics would be nice.

If I found the camera opened and batteries on the ground I would suspect fowl play.
