Deer know by sampling plants which ones to eat and which ones to avoid. Obviously, they like yours! Patricia, if the deer are still eating them then I would not worry about it.

The deer have been eating either the roots or the succulent parts because they take them out of the planter. Will these plants hurt them or make them sick? I got a picture on my wildcam.

If it does not bother them, they eat more. Deer will eat all sorts of fruit: apples, pears, dewberries, black berries, strawberries, as wells as nuts like acorns, walnuts, and pecans.
