MoultrieGravity Tripod Feeder

I read many reviews on here where people are saying it’s not very good and it breaks or the deer can chew the plastic off. I had a problem with a squirrel actually on top of it chewing one of the feeder outlets and it’s all my cameras too. The deer have no problem eating out of it and I have put 60 bags of deer feeding already through it and never a problem. To stop the squirrel from climbing on it I put axle grease on the metal posts and that prevented them from climbing up at.

Easy setup and easy to use. Keeps the feed dry. Even on humid days there isn’t in moisture build up inside.Unluckily I haven’t had any deer come to it yet. My homemade PVC ones were attacked daily last year. Though, we’ve had a very wet summer so they probably will start hitting it once their food starts dying off come fall.

In a perfect world this would be a great feeder. I got it so there wouldn't be a surplus of corn from the spin feeder on the ground to invite feral hogs. BUT, the feeder spout of this gravity fed is just the right height for coons to nearly empty the hopper overnight. I guess the battery-operated spin feeder is the best way to go. Sadly disappointed. It's just a fact of life though.

I bought this to replace one from another manufacturer. I get tired of feeding the wild hogs instead of the deer and this feeder from Moultrie is just right. Even small deer can access the corn but pigs and raccoons cannot. Gravity feeders use a lot more corn than the timer feeders, but it sure keeps the animals coming back.Perfect height and the design keeps the food dry. Great feeder.

If you don't feel like or have the time to building your own, this is a good option. I purchased 2. One hopper has cracked around where the legs slide in, after less than a year. Used caulk to seal it up and it's fine. Other has held up fine. There's probably better options, but this will get the job done. Expensive for the quality.
