We had 5 visitors on the first night here, so we went and bought a bag of corn and a bunch of apples and carrots. Tonight, we had 21 visitors!

Try some Cheerios or Honey Nut cereal. We have had good luck with the deer eating those in the past. Now in Ruidoso, if you get caught they can fine you. Not worth the :bas: as there are always deer in the area.

No need to go buy cereal at this point. We still have around 30 lbs of corn an half a bag of apples. That little 4 point liked the apples so much that if I didn't let go of the apple, he probably would have taken my fingers too lol.
I,haven't seen or heard anything about feeding deer here to be illegal.

That’s awesome. We’ve seen 2 deer in Moab and 10lb crows

That is freaking cool!!!

A lot of fun for the kiddos. Thanks for sharing.

You are correct sir.

One cannot hunt deer in NM over a baited area, but you can feed them, unless there's some city ordinance about it.

Supplemental feeding is okay.

That’s Awesome !

That would give a whole new meaning to "eating crow "

Cool pics Are y'all just hanging out or going to snow ski?

Never knew about it being illegal in Ruidoso to feed the deer. The condos we stayed at time before last, had ziplocs of corn for you to feed the mulies.

Can't believe that buck still has antlers.

Great pictures!
Awesome close encounters for the kids!

That's awesome, the girls will remember that encounter for the rest of their lives

That’s a great time

Skiing too. I'm so whooped, I'm in bed by 8:30 every night. LOL.
There's an 8, a couple 4's, and numerous spikes with antlers. Haven't seen a single antlerless Buck yet.

Great pics and memories

Good stuff

I want to go there just to see all the Mule Deer!!!

They ate out of your hand.

Lots of fun especially for the kids, seeing them up close is good for them.

I tried to learn to sky at Red River and their setup for beginners was horrible. We went to Angel Fire and it was great and I caught right on. Much better set up for beginners.
