What’s the latest any of you has had spotted fawns on camera or seen? I actually still have a spotted button buck that comes out everyday with his sister. My wife seen him late January while hunting that plot and reassured in person what the camera was showing us.

I think fella who has plot next to mine musta shot the mom earlier in season cause none of the does we killed outta that plot had milk.

My lil buddy still sporting his spots around but they are slowly fading away. I’d say within 2 weeks he’ll be out of them.

Lol, that deer lost its spots only cause it shed its winter coat.

I stopped my tactacam subscription for the summer so when I get back up there I’ll check the sd card to see if my lil buddy finally lost his spots.
