Double Down Minerals

Has anyone used Double Down minerals? Any results? Thoughts?

No, but I have used the Lyssy and Eckel Mass-O-Rack brand for two years and liked the results.

I would go with what this man says if you are going to use minerals -

How do you put it out?

It is in a loose mineral form. You can put it in some type of small wooden box or plastic tub, pour it directly onto the ground or dig a hole then mix it with the soil. I fed a mixture of soybean meal, L&E mineral and deer pellets out of my protein feeders.

Yelp, he has a few odd deer management ideas…


but he is second to none on nutrition. Pretty impressive

We dig out a little hole and pour it in. Start in March.

"odd deer management ideas." Oh boy, here we go... At least we know who started it this time.

In honor of the acronym post in another section:

IBTMOTLRF

100 dollars for a 50lb bag....no thanks...you can buy 6 bags of 21% protein for the same price of one bag of minerals

Anybody ever use some sort of dewormer in their feeders?

Yes we did every year - put it out in all our protein feeders in the spring and it made a huge difference. Body weights improved and the deer were clean -

Feds have done alot of research in fever tick areas. Ivermectin and corn. Might try to google the papers on it.

I mix Cydectin with corn for the Ibex. Good for ticks, lice and as a wormer. The deer and sheep also eat it. Stinks bad but they eat it.
