THAT MIGHT GET REAL EXPENSIVE UNLESS YOU GROW THEM, OR USE THEM AS A BLEND IN WITH CORN. TRY SOY BEANS AS A BLEND.

Corn works great. If you want something different horn + has some soy, peas etc. Pintos do make a tasty side dish with backstraps.

They will work fine, but you need a protein feeder right next to your bean feeder. Fill it with Mexican corn bread and they will love it.

Hunting in Webb county, If were to feed pinto beans we would have others beside deer hanging out at the feeders. Some really seem to like it and they would stay at the feeder longer scaring the deer away instead of just walking on by.

If the beans ever get wet, you are going to have a heck of a mess on your hands. You will be taking that deer feeder to your local coin operated car wash to try to get the rot out of the feeder.

If the deer will eat it, it should be a good idea. I would worry about the beans sticking in my feeder. We have our feeders going now, and as usual...........the deer are wearing it out. We feed Indian Corn and the deer really seem to like it and stay at the feeder longer......
