Piebald Doe
 

I saw a mature piebald doe for the second time tonight while driving by the property I hunt! She has awesome markings. I hope to see her again when I'm actually hunting......Jim

Hey Jim...

They are a sight to see...I took a 4pt piebald about 8 years ago bowhunting. I thought it was a springer spaniel and then a goat,,,till I saw the antlers!!!:D

Tanned the hide on this one.

They are awesome to use a term from Jay Gregory.[&:] Several years ago I hunted a 2.5 yr old piebald doe almost exclusively. I had passed up some decent bucks to get a chance at her too. I had her as close as 50 yards on 5 occassions but she always appeared out of no where which was amazing considering as much white as she had. She was like a ghost and always won. The first time I saw her, like above I thought now dang it, whose dog is loose out here and then I realized she was with other deer....lol I never saw her after that archery season.

Six years ago a guy on our farm took a nice "basket rack" 10 pnt Piebald on opening day. It was a blotchy 3 tone brown and white. It did look like 3/4 goat/deer. I've got pictures but don't know how to post??

Anyway - the guy called F&W to get the low down on these animals. As I remember he was told very few exist as both male and female must have gene that produces Piebald traits. Many only live in marshy/low land areas as we saw evidence of hooves, "spread out",marsh mud on belly,legs on our Piebald.

4 months later I saw another Piebald buck about 3 miles away(alive). Haven't seen one since.

This past Spring I found dead BB Piebald dumped in woods about 100 yrds from entrance to our farm(out of season). Some slob shot him and dumped him.

IMO, they live in those areas cause they know they can be seen/spotted easily and opt to stay in heavy cover
i have pics of a 100% whitey...gotta find them and i will post...saw her on the way to work for a few days a few years back.
