RE: Question
 

Could be that there is a lot of other food sources in your area that the deer prefer at this time of year. Last winter there was a big acorn crop and the deer wouldn't hardly sniff corn. Give it a week or two and then check it again, strange that the coons, squirrels, birds and other critters havn't found it.

Did you put it where you see they travel alot? I try to set my rocks at fence crossings or other main travel routes. They'll stop if they come to it.

Give it time. Why did you put the camera up so soon after putting the corn out? They are probably stillfreaked out about you being in there. They will eventually find it. There are no acorns yet, so they will hit it. They are feeding now on soft mast and plants. Once the acorns start falling, especially the white oaks, they will eat very little corn.I usually won't put a camera on corn until two or three weeks after they have found it. If you have a feeder, you need to let them get used to it before going in with a camera.

I think it depends on the situation. I've had no problems putting corn and a camera out and getting pictures right away. In some locations, it may take a few days for themto find the corn, but most of the time, the deer will be visiting the bait sight in less than 24 hours and getting their picture taken. :) Maybe it's because my farm is a working farm and the deer are used to a lot of human intrusion already.

I check my cam once a week and right now I'm only leaving about 15-20 pounds of corn out when I swap memory cards. The corn will be gone in 1-2 days.
