I hate to post a question on someone elses thread but I saw two bucks last year that stumped me. They were together in late october and they had to be twins. They looked about the size of a button buck and had spikes approx. 3 inches long. These were the smallest spikes I've ever seen , and to my knowledge a 1/2 year old buck doesn't grow spikes. So if they were 1 1/2 year old bucks they were either born late or had terrible genetics. Maybe it was both. Has anybody else seen deer this small with spikes?
