Default RE: Rut Predictions for 05??????

Just got my F&S in the mail last night and read an article talking about how wildlife researchers believe the "second" rut is driven mostly by doe fawns who they say come into estrus about four weeks later than adult does - and the big, experiencedbucks who come looking for them because they know the rut isn't really over yet. Article saysthe second rut has less to do with adult does who haven't been bred yet than earlier thought. If true, that would be good news for me because we've got lots of fawns.
