How long does it take hogs to get used to feeder lights?

[jseamless]

I am going to add a couple solar powered out door lights to my feeder. They are not bright at all. They are a white colored light. I wonder how long it would take the hogs to get used to the lights?

[Dale Moser]

They usually notice the lights in about 3 seconds.........but I've already shot 1 by then.

if there is corn on the ground, not long

[Aggiebow88]

Not long if on every night with corn, even less if red tinted,,, My guess? week or less esp if not white light

[Speedgoat]

Can hogs see green and red lights?

supposedly not.

@Snipehunter they are not suppose to see red lights from what I have read. They can see the source of the lights and shadows.

If you have a red bow light you should come to full draw turn the light on then slowly lower your sights onto the bacon.

depends on how bad their bellies are growling. I put some up and got pic of them the same night.

I put it right on them then turn it on. If lowering down you may cause a more noticeable shadow change behind them.

Either way once they get corn stupid I do not think it matters.

Won't bother em a bit if there's food there.

Here is an update. I put couple dim powered solar lights and the boar I was hunting did not come in. He circled the area. I did have a sow and a few little come in for them tasty kernels.

I also had a mature doe come in at dark. She just circled the setup.
