Nope, they don't shed. Normally, the actual "buttons" don't begin to protrude through the skin until spring, so there's nothing to shed.
Awesome, thanks for the info LC, that makes total sense.
They don't have enough to testosterone to produce a rack- which also makes them incapable of breeding. Also.. button bucks generally dont begin their their additional growth to the buttons until spring when the other bucks do- which is triggered by photoperiodism.
