Comal County wildlife report deadline

Checked November 1, 2026

Every year; no posted date

Once approved for wildlife use, you must submit an annual report. No due date is posted, so plan on April 30 and call to confirm.

What to keep for Comal County

Whether or not Comal County asks for a report this year, keep dated proof that you carried out at least three of the seven wildlife management practices in your plan:

• A log of each activity: the date, what you did, where and how much
• Dated photos of the work (feeders, water, brush piles, cleared brush)
• Receipts and invoices for feed, seed, materials and contractors
• Census sheets with dates, routes and numbers seen

Read our plain-English guide to the annual report (PWD-888) for the full 3-of-7 rule, or see deadlines for other counties.

Who to contact in Comal County

The appraisal district decides your wildlife valuation and sets any report deadline, so call them if a letter or form doesn't match what's on this page. Your county AgriLife Extension office can help with a wildlife management plan.

Comal County habitat: Edwards Plateau

Texas Parks and Wildlife places Comal County in the Edwards Plateau ecoregion. Its Edwards Plateau wildlife management guidelines set the minimum work for each practice. A few examples:

• Habitat control: Brush management: treat at least 10% of the plan area or 10 acres per year, whichever is smaller.
• Supplemental food: Feeders: at least 1 free-choice feeder per 320 acres in use during the recommended period, with feed of at least 16% crude protein.
• Supplemental water: Wildlife watering facility (well, trough, guzzler): at least one project per 10 years, or consistent water management at existing sites.
• Census counts: Spotlight counts: at least 3 counts, or at least 15 surveyed miles, completed each year.

Your own plan may set different targets. Log what you actually do against it, with dates and photos.

Deadlines and rules come from each appraisal district's own published guidelines, checked November 1, 2026. Districts can change them, and your district's letters, forms and deadlines always apply. Habitat Ledger is not affiliated with any appraisal district or Texas Parks and Wildlife.
