Will deer eat green (unrippened) apples? With the dry weather I have seen a few trees that were loaded but dropping alot of apples already. Didnt look to be much bigger than golf balls. I was gonna pick them up but didnt know if it was a waste of time or not!
Thanks Guys!

yes they will eat them when ever they can get them
my tree's here are dry too, the few they have been dropping and are gone by morning every day!
I agree, they will eat them. But, I think they like them to be ripe because of the sweetness. I would guess that due to the dry conditions they may be having a hard time finding food that they like, so the green apples are the best thing in the area. I don't think they would make a good attractaint once it rains and the grass softens up, or the acorns start falling.
Feed them for sure, they'd rather have them ripe but they love'm anytime.
