Hogs can be very contrary creatures. One here even decided to make it’s nest inside the feed box – on top of the food! Although that was a male, so no young involved. But in general, if you want the hog to use the nest long term, as opposed to naps between snacks, it is probably better to have it further away from the feed box. Other hogs, and predators, are more likely to be attracted to feeding areas, so a hog might find a quieter location more appealing for, say, having young in.
