However this is not uncommon,apperantly a doe will continue to be in heat until she has been impregnated.
Not uncommon?

A doe would have to be bred April-ish to still have spotted fawns in December. In MN....I'd say that was pretty uncommon.
I agree!! Not common at all. Actually I have a hard time believing it. No disrespect either Jesus towards you but it just doesn't sound or seem right.

Good thing for me its not a poll than,it`s a scientific fact and it`s not uncommon.

Seriously....you don't find this a little uncommon? I'm truly interested in why.

You do agree the whitetail rut isn't in March/April, right?

Late last year I was out on my brothers 30 acres on the edge of a field where I had seen this 130 class 10 pointer a few times,I set up 4-5 feet in the trees on the ground with the wind coming straight at me across the field,long story short-I heard some footsteps and saw a big doe start walking right in front of me down the tree line,

then out of the corner of my eye I caught some movement,following her were two spotted fawns which for this time of year was odd
Trust me, this is uncommon, and you say, yourself, that it's "odd"????

And I thought you said YOU hadn't seen it.

Uh...yeah. Spot on.

[&:] No it isn't a scientific fact? From where?


I also have`nt seen an elbino deer
me either;):D

In Minnesota, I have NEVER seen a fawn with spots, in December.

..as for the question:

It'd be a game time decision. I might call an audible at the line, and shoot.

I'd say it's very uncommon, not unheard of but very uncommon.

Let's say the the doe first comes in estrous the 15th of Nov....her second estrous period would be 28 days later or Dec 13th ish, she'd have to come into estrous again in Jan around the 10th ish....a doe carrys for what 200 days ish...? If she's prego in Nov, she births the end of May, spots are usually gone in Oct, if she's prego in Dec, she's birthing the of June and spots would leave usually be gone by Nov....and if she's bred in Jan, she's birthing in July and the spots could be there in Dec.....

I just saw a fawn 2 weeks ago that couldn't have been a week old. Uncommon but not unheard of.
