Is this common?

I've been noticing that some of the early born buck fawns on my land seem to grow some pretty good buttons. They actually shed their velvet and have hard horn buttons. Anyone else seen this?

One from last season



One from this year...... a little fawn rivalry. He hasn't shed the velvet yet, but with buttons over an inch, I'm thinking he will.

 

It's common around here too.

 

I've seen it, lil babies with lil nubs, I've heard some hunters say the've seen them with little racks or spikes. idk though I have yet to see that....that may be a wives tail?

 

Early fawns ? ?

 

I've seen one like that, Greg. Last season. His buttons were about 2 inches in length and covered in light blonde velvet in early Nov.

 

I've seen it once. His body was extremely small and he had little 2 inch devil horn spikes sticking out.

 

It is pretty common in my area.

 

I see it here to Greg, I think is pretty common. cool pics bro!

 

See it from time to time here as well. I would say it is common.

 

For example, one that is born near the beginning of May vs one that is born toward the end of June.

 

That is my thought
