Hurley Byrd Does it Differently, Very Differently:
We handcraft each and every feeder we sell. Starting with our own designs, producing OUR OWN Lumbers and assembling your feeders with
real screws throughout. We then protect each feeder with a beautiful penetrating oil finish so they last for many years. We take pride in our service, too.
From the moment you first interact with us, whether on our website or on the phone, to the delivery of your feeders and gifts and everything in between.
We want to make owning and gift giving easy for you. So whether it's a simple thank you, a unique deer feeder gift a whole
feeding station for you and your family, choose Hurley-Byrd and see the difference our feeders really make.

Permanently Installed or Free Standing - We offer both.
Which is best for you?
This is the #1 question from customers purchasing a deer feeder for the first time.
Baby Deer and Mom
To the right is a Permanently Installed model.
Its legs are buried in the ground 8 to 12 inches and is the Most Secure feeder we offer. It will not tip over, be pulled over or blown over and with its clean crisp design, its appearance is most elegant.
By far, Our Most Popular is the Free Standing version.
Having the ability to relocate your feeder is a real plus. It allows you
to move the feeder for better placement, easier lawn maintenance
or when storing it away in the off season.
Secure Placement - Shown to the left.
Each free standing feeder comes with landscaping spikes to secure it in place. All Deer Feeders are supplied with a
set of 4 very large spikes (60D Nails to be exact).
Hurley-Byrd premium quality deer feeders add class,
beauty and elegance to any home or backyard feeding station.
Your new feeders will be easy to set up and very attractive to your deer.
Big Bucks are HERE: Antler growth is done and it's time to put them into action.
Now through November is your best chance to see the "BIG One(s)."
Hurley-Byrd Offers 4 Sizes.
Which One is Best?
A great question and a difficult one to answer!
The 15 pound feeder is for someone who wishes to experiment with deer feeding or who may want it to feed birds and small animals.
For people with a large deer population or who have been feeding a long time, we recommend the larger sizes or (better yet) multiple smaller feeders.
Here's a Capacity Baseline:
By no means is this the ultimate guide. There are too many variables involved. Feel free to call us and we'll talk it over.
Standard Deer Feeder: 15 pounds of capacity: Two or three deer. Most travel in threes.
Extra Large Deer Feeder: 25 pounds of capacity (our #1 selling deer feeder): Three to five deer.
Ultra Large Deer Feeder: 35 pounds of capacity (our #1 for returning customers): Five to seven deer.
Magnum Deer Feeder: Our largest with 45 pounds of capacity: Seven plus deer.
Hurley Byrd Lumber And Preservative
All Hurley-Byrd feeders are handcrafted from our very
own Forest to Finish to You Lumbers and assembled with ceramic coated screws.
( Note: Feeders shown in various lumbers. Your feeders will be unique to you!!!!!)
All HB Feeders receives a dip into a vat filled with wood preservative
penetrating oil finish and then they are hand rubbed to bring out the wood's
natural beauty. This produces a feeder like no other and when you set up
a Hurley-Byrd feeder you will know you are using the finest.
Installing a Permanently Installed Deer Feeder
Permanently Installed Deer Feeders are supplied with sturdy and rot resistant legs which, depending
on the model, are buried 8" to 10" to 12" in the ground setting the feeder at a comfortable 24" feeding height.
Vee Shape or Flat Bottom?
The Original Deer Feeder shown above
utilize our "original" Vee shaped design.
Hence the name.
A Strengthening Innovation a Decade Ago:
The Extra Large, Ultra Large and Magnums are crafted into a heavy duty Flat Bottom design. It provides better strength, faster water drainage and is far easier for your deer to clean out.

(now discontinued) and a 15 lbs 36" Original Deer Feeder (R).
Below is a 36", 25 lbs capacity Extra Large in front of
a 48" Ultra Large which holds 35 lbs.
Our BIGGEST (shown below in Cherry) is the Magnum Deer Feeder at 60" in length and holds 45 plus pounds of whole shell corn.
Free Standing Deer Feeders
Ease of Assembly - No Tools Required!
Just like the Permanently Installed feeders noted
above, the Free Standing Deer Feeder comes with carriage
bolts, washers and wingnuts for easy assembly of the
legs to the trough and then the feet to the legs.
In just five minutes this feeder is assembled and
set out ready for action. Simply fill, sit back and enjoy.
Our Easiest Ever No-Tools-Required Assembly
As easy as eating pie...... Your new feeder's Trough-to-Leg and Leg-to-Foot connections use carriage bolts and wingnuts. No Tools Required. It couldn't be any easier.
Spike it Down - Free Standing Deer Feeders
Each Free Standing Feeder comes with
6" Timber Nails to spike it in place.

Enjoying a Original Deer Feeder.
Permanently Installed Deer Feeders:
Each Feeder comes with 4 carriage bolts, washers and wing nuts to attach the legs to the trough. This provides easy assembly and disassembly for storage, lawn maintenance or cleaning. Simply bolt the legs to the trough and bury the legs 8 to 10 inches in the ground.
Free Standing Deer Feeders:
Each feeder comes with 8 sets carriage
bolts, washers and wingnuts. You will use 4 sets
to attach the legs to the trough and the other 4 sets to
attach the feet to the legs. Extremely simple and fast.
In a fun shop race, we assembled one in under 1 minute.
What's in the box when it arrives?
You will receive a completely assembled trough, a set of legs (and feet if applicable) and all hardware.
Included are proper set up and usage instructions. Photo below is how they arrive. We love stretch wrap!
Original Deer Feeder: Capacity-15 Lbs. Standard legs and or feet.
The one which started it all and the only one to retain its Vee Shaped design.
Choose between Permanently Installed or Free Standing in FFY.
Extra Large Deer Feeder: Capacity-25 Lbs. FFY.
Introduced many years ago, it is now one of our best sellers. The flat bottom
is easier for your deer to clean out and water drains far better than the Original.
Ultra Large Deer Feeder: Cap-35 Lbs. FFY.
Flat Bottom also but 33% longer than the EL allowing more deer to enjoy your offering with less filling. An excellent choice for larger deer herds.
Magnum Deer Feeder: Cap-45 Lbs. FFY.
For those wanting to keep their deer feeding in one location yet offer a large quantity of feed. This Flat Bottom Feeder holds a bag of corn.
The "Original" was our original design.
Hence the name. Makes a great
squirrel and bird feeder too.
Our Customer's #1 choice for multiple
feeder feeding stations. 2 work well together.

For the 2019 Feeding Season
A HUGE step forward for our deer feeders.
We now offer all models with lumbers from our
new Forest to Finish to You (F2F2Y) program.
In a Nutshell, F2F2Y program is.........:
We harvest the tree, we saw the lumber and we craft your feeders. Easy? NO .... But the result .... WOW!
Due to their heft, we can
only ship two Magnums per box.
Plus, each box now carries an $11 Over Length Shipping Charge imposed by the carry.
We thank Lisa B. for the photo.
Lisa and all her family members enjoy HB deer and bird feeders at each of their homes.

A BIG Thank you to our wildlife loving friend C.A. for the Photos.
The Hurley Byrd "Original" Deer Feeder
Keep in Mind:
You can put 15lbs of feed in a
35lb feeder but never 35 into
a 15. Opt for the largest.
BETTER YET:
Erect 2+ feeders instead
of 1 large. Deer have a hierarchy and a single feeder can easily be dominated by one or two deer while the babies and subordinates wait in the background.
