This years fawns (does) don't come into estrus with the rest of the other does, so any left over adult and fawns get breed later. It generally happens when you have a high doe to buck ratio, all the does can't be bred during the 1st rut. Plus any temp's over 45 degrees shuts the 1st or 2nd rut down.
