Default Fawns With spots!

I live in Northern Lower Michigan, I am seeing alot of fawns with spots, many of these guys are exstremely small too. Thinks because of a late rut last year. Winter just around the corner and these deer are not looking very big?

That's usually a sign that you have too many does.

that's probale too. Plus take in to account that the bucks just can't breed all the does, so the unbred does will go back into heat every 28 days until bred.

Thevast majority of fawns in my area have only lost their spots in the past 2 weeks. Many do seem to be on the small side this season???

I put my cameras back out a couple of weeks ago, and I am seeing fawns with spots too. I am in eastern Texas, and this is not uncommon for mid-September here. Some have already started losing them, but most still have them and will until mid-October+/-. I have seen spotted fawns as late as Thanksgiving here, but that is very uncommon.
