Default RE: Albino deer?

A true albino occurs in about one of 100,000 births and very few survive beyond the first year of life. For an albino to live over seven years is extremely unusual. All cases of true albinism are due to the lack of pigmentation in the hair, skin, and, in the case of deer, the iris of the eyes, pink or blue, and the hoofs a pale gray.

Default RE: Albino deer?

Albino and piebold deer are caused by a resesive gene, these are inferior and genetical deficent deer and should be harvested for the good of the heard. This gene is inherited from father to daughter and from mother to son. It does not always show up in each generation but as long as it is there you will have inferior deer and deer heards . There are a few states that have banned the killing of these deer but if your laws allow it do so. Not only does this gene affect the color or lackof color it also affects the joints, growth rates and eye sight of these deer, which can be passed down without the color deficency. Again take them if your laws allow it.
