Skeeter 7mm. Hit the nail on the head as to what I was saying. During early development, the deers antlers are very delicate. And during this stage of growth is when most antlers are damaged or broke. This can happen from running away from a predator, and hitting their antlers on a tree or other hard object. Or possibly from being ding by a truck, or car. And when the deer hit the ground damaged it's antlers. There's a lot of different factor in every deer as to how they grow their antlers. Genetic's play a important role in antler growth and size. Some estimate that 50% of a bucks nutritional intake goes into antler development during the first 4 months of growth. Growing antlers are 80% protein and 20% ash. Harden antlers are roughly 63% ash, 22% calcium, 11% phosphorus and 4% organic matter. So it does matter, what the deer feeds on as to how the antlers grow. And since the picture of the deer you're showing, the antlers are still in their early stages of growth.
