Below is a picture of a 5 point Albino buck that a friend of my harvested last season. This buck was harvested in West Virgina in one of the (4) bow hunting only counties. This is a true albino deer, pink hoofs, pink eyes and pink ears. The real kicker is when my friend gutted this deer the blood was purple. He was scared to eat the meat due to the blood but did have a full body mount done on the buck. Thought you guy' s would like to see it.

That is really an albino, not a piebald. A piebald has charistics of both " normal" as in brown and " albino" as in white. A piebald can have brown eyes and normal hoofs yet still have a white coat. that is a true albino that your friend harvested.

Yup, that would be a true albino and a great trophy. Too many people accuse a white deer to be albino when it' s simply white but yes, your friend has an albino...congrats to him...

Excellent trophy... actually protected in some states

There you got it now, hankfan how did you change the wording in your post like that. I don' t know how. Could you explain?

I don' t know what I was thinking when I titled this post. For some reason I was thinking piebald. Oh well I corrected it!!! LOL

For some reason I thought it ws Illegal to shoot an albino????????? I wouldn' t do it! But hey to each, his own!

Nice looking deer, congrats to your friend. Those are illegal here in Oklahoma.

Click on the icon with the pencil in it. Thats the edit button, I think it' s the third one on the top right of a post.

Can you get a picture up of the mount?

Not for sure what I would do if something like that walked up to my stand. I' m pretty sure it' s illegal to shoot in IL. Heck, I would probably assume it was a farmers goat and not think twice about it. Congrats to your friend!
