Deer finding new feeder

[Bigcoyote]

I’m sure it’s all over the board, but how long does it generally take for deer (and hogs) to find a new feeder? Especially in an area that hasn’t been hunted in 5 years.

Couple of days maybe.

Depends on area and if they are used to corn. I’ve seen areas of East Texas that it took several months for them to start eating regularly.

There are no deer in e tx……

Not very long

Scatter a bunch of corn in the area, especially along established trails, and it won't take more than a few days.

I have had them find it the same day.

E Tx, I've had them find it in a day.

If you put it in an area they aren't using it may take a while.

Depends but usually Not very long, under a week, especially if you put something sweet smelling out to help them find it.

I have had them find it the same day.

Many times especially if you dump a bottle vanilla on the ground

[AntlerCollector]

1-24 hours

Near water or trails to water or good bedding within a day. If none of that then much longer.
