Default RE: Nut Tree's

ORIGINAL: Uddeholm

Since I cant wait for oaks to grow up and mast, I planted 6 chinease chestnut tree's, which gurney's said produce in 5 years. Now, hindsight makes me wonder, will deer eat the chestnuts? I want to have something with a decent protien content.
How much protein do you think 6 trees will provide your deer? If they are grouped together they may make a nice little spot to hunt but they aren't going to provide much food for your deer in the long run.
