    do you have a body of water on your property? i would start there ... pigs love mud baths and need water ... they usually hit water right after dark , then move on to feeding after that .. the more pressure you put on , the later they will show up at feeders ..

    Next, turn off that ATV and walk ... on my place they got trained so well that if you fired up , they wouldn't show . unless you get lucky and the wind is blowing hard masking the sound , they will learn that vehicle sounds means death ...

    after that .. it's all about feed and like deer when acorns drop , you won't see them come in for corn when the prime rib buffet is open ... that's why they love freshly plowed fields .. easy dig for grubs and such ...

    all the molases mix etc only works when they are already there .. the old combine leaking diesel crater is only there because the plowed field full of grubs was there ... they didn't come for the diesel , is what i'm trying to say... most of those man made honey holes are just designed to keep them there longer, not to get them there. good luck!

      I don’t think OP is warrior about lack of water right now Infact he may be experiencing too much water.

          Well, there you go. Won’t be long until there’s no grass under that feeder. By the way, you might want to get it staked down if you haven’t already. Good luck sticking pigs!

                consistent source of food, shade and water/moisture.
                Obviously they need food, but they also need Shade and water to roll in and make a mud bath to cover themselves with mud and stay cool
