[QUOTE="retrieverman, post: 3668547, member: 24452"] I’d recommend setting the feeder up now. I agree with MIH about deer being creatures of habit, but I’ve found they adapt really fast to a feeder. My son and I put up a feeder a couple weeks ago in a place where there’s never been one before, and the deer were frequenting it within 24 hours. I filled a feeder a couple days ago that hasn’t been filled since 2016 or 2017, and it only took them about 24 hours to start hitting it. I saw 3 bucks there this morning. I help a friend put up a pen around a feeder to keep pigs out. The deer were leery of it for a few days, but their desire to eat corn overshadowed their “fear” of the pen. Personally, I‘m not a fan of feeder pens, but sometimes they are a necessity. :anyone: [/QUOTE]
