Default Sheds?

Just wondering if anyone has found sheds yet? I saw a couple of pics in the Trail camera forum showing bucks with only one horn and a bloody depression where the other had already fallen off.

I am sure they are dropping around here, but I have not found any yet. I did get a pic on my trail cam, that looks like it is a buck that has dropped both sides, and has heeled over.

They should be shedding antlers but the snow is way to deep to get anywhere around here and many may be under it too.

Are you in missouri? If so all the snow in Pulaski/Phelps counties has melted or at least not deep.

I will be out this weekend lookin for some sheds.

Bucks are losing their antlers earlier than normal in SE. Ohio but I am going to wait another 2 weeks to start looking. Pike

The snow is pretty deep where I live but I need excersise so tomorrow I might go for a little walk. If nothing else hopefully I will be able to locate some bedding areas so I can go back to them after the snow dissapears. I don't usually have much luck this early. I usually find mine during turkey season.
