I've been feeding the deer rice bran, along with corn, for several years, and they love the stuff.....when I first started using the rice bran, it was dirt cheap.....it's just a by-product of the rice milling process, and back then, cost was about $5 bucks for a 50 lb. bag .....now, since it's become so popular here in the south, the rice mills have started slapping pictures of big deer on their bags, and the price has sky-rocketed.....some, as high as $30 bucks a bag.
A young guy about an hour's drive south of me opened a small mill, and is selling it for $10.50 a bag, which is pretty reasonable for today's prices.....if you guys can find rice bran in your area, the deer love the stuff.....it smells sorta like fresh baked bread.
