Hi Nic, thanks for replying. You have understood the access issue correctly. Should I remove the food from the bowl? There isn’t much space to put it anywhere else though without blocking the accesses, and I don’t want to take the water bowl away as it’s dried food.
I did have a hog use the lovely hay-filled ready-to-occupy one a few years ago, and they didn’t bother adding to it. The problem is I don’t think the hogs have even explored it or found it at all this year – there’s certainly no sign of disturbance. I put a small piece of kitchen roll in the entrance to see if anyone has been over it. I don’t want to give up, but equally I don’t want to dissuade him from stopping with us for the winter, and know I can’t force anything on him…
I don’t know, you try to do your best, but they obviously didn’t read the memo!
