Deer conditioning system

A deer conditioning system uses a feeder that has a lid that automatically opens at a specified time, namely the start of hunting hours, and closes at a specified time, the end of hunting hours. When the lid is open, the system dispenses a deer pleasing stimuli so as to attract deer, the deer being rewarded by the contents of the feeder for responding to the stimuli. Alternately, in a typical always open feeder, either a deer attracting stimuli dispenser is provided and is programmed to release stimuli during hunting hours or a deer repulsing stimuli dispenser is provided and programmed to release stimuli during non-hunting hours upon motion being detected proximate the feeder via a motion detector, or both types of dispensers are provided and appropriately programmed.
