Pregnant doe. 9/9/20

[mowin]

 Client had a doe giving birth in his back lawn on 9/2.  This pic was taken on 9/9.  Definitely looks like she's pregnant. Every other doe is sleek looking.

Now you have me wondering on this one. Picture was 9/14

I know it can happen as I mentioned my client watched a fawn being born on 9/2.  Had to be a 3rd rut to be born so late.

One year in Dec I saw 2 spotted real little fawns. I don’t think there’s anyway they made it

Doubtful any fawn born now will see spring of 2021

Well more than likely bloat form whole corn someone put out as feed..  ,deer will gorge on it but can cause bunch of problems as they havent developed the bacteria to digest it. Bloat can lead to death, as well as starvation as belly is full but cant digest its food. 

, a fawn born this late is rare and usually indicates a very high buck to doe ratio when it does happen

Sorry, no friggin chance on corn bloat.  Several corn fields within 1/4 mi.  Client of mine witnessed a fawn being born on 9/2 only a mile from where my cam took this pic.  

Your correct on the buck to die ratio being extremely lopsided.  I can drive the roads in the area and see 20-25 doe to each buck seen. Our unit 4U hasn't had DMP tags in years. Everyone has questioned why when were over run with deer.  Last several yrs, 4U only had 100 DMP tags available for landowners or disabled vets. Only the past two yrs, have we had tags available to the masses(200)...

Happens often, we found a new born fawn in sept last year. Couldn’t even run away yet.
