So if they have no milk in their sacs at 10/13.....they didn't drop a fawn?

Interesting. I didn't know that. Only one of mine had milk in her sac.....but that was over two weeks ago. So I can assume the other two didn't drop this year?

If so....I feel better, now. Last night I was in the same area I shot the doe saturday (the one that came in with two yearling does and two fawns). Last night the two fawns came by at 4:45 and sniffed all around where I recovered the doe (for 5-10 minutes). I just assumed they were hers.
It can be surmised that she didn't drop fawns. All the other doe we've been seeing have fawns with thwm and one tried to nurse. Matt's doe was full of milk and had this doe had fawns this year, she would have had milk as well unless she dropped them way early and pushed them off (BB's). I cannot tell you the last time I shot a doe that didn't have milk.

OH and Matt filmed a doe that had a fawn with spots with her up at RJ's. Yeah, Oct and spots. [8D]

Anywho, nothing is ever set in stone with whitetails and nothing ceases to surprise me with them either anymore.

All I know was this nanny gave us an excited time and you know better than any how I get pumped and rattled when taking animals with my bow, even turkeys. I love it.
