Default Check this little guy out....

Hey guys, I checked the camera this morning and found these pics of a little buck. At first I thought that he was actually a "she". I didn't notice the nubs on his head until I saw some "extra baggage" on a pic of him walking away.

Check out these pics, he either has a tumor comming off above his left eye, or his antler is turning down the side of his head. What do you guys think, is it a tumor or is it antler?

The first photo has a bloody hole in the center of the head from some kind of parisite or ?. A lot of deformations have occured from infections assiociated with such bites/infections setting in. Its my guess that its going to be a freakey antler on that side, I don't know really if the deer is genetically a freak either. It would be intresting to see a photo of it later in the season. Thanks for sharin.
