    Do deer like sweet corn? Our sweet corn is about to the point of being beyond the point of eating and was wondering if deer have a liking for it if I were to try it in front of a trail cam? Bet I'd get a thousand coon pictures.

    My grandma always complains about the deer eating hers. So I guess they do.

    They'd love it and so would the local coon population.

    Yep, they're always in my parents garden hitting the sweet corn as are the coons.

    Coons are thick in the sweet corn every year and usually get about 1/4 of our sweet corn. Never seen deer in it before but I might throw a couple ears in front of the camera next time I check it.

    They will definitely eat it but like others have said you will have a hard time keeping them damn coons off it.
