Post by: Michelle_Nelson on December 27, 2008, 10:23:49 PM: Deffinatly a Piebald. Also a dandy buck for a piebald as well. Don't see many get that big. Use to see 3 to 5 a year down in Georgia. I've got a hide here at the shop from one. Have mounted 2.

Post by: boneaddict on December 28, 2008, 08:21:01 AM: wonder where on the animal he shot it. He did a good job of cleaning it up for pics.
Title: Re: odd colored buck
Post by: Red Dawg on December 28, 2008, 08:22:25 AM: looks like there may be a spot right in front on the brisket area. looks like he shot him in the throat.

Post by: Huntbear on December 28, 2008, 08:59:42 AM: I have seen blacktails colored like that including one that looked like an appaloosa with white butt with dark spots up near Cougar. Tried to get pictures, but they were to far away for the camera I had.. This was about 10 years ago.

That is one awesome looking deer though.

Post by: bucklucky on December 28, 2008, 09:24:00 AM: Ive seen about a dozen of them alive through the years. My wife killed a fork last year that I will be doing a lifesize on. They are neat looking critters! That is a beautiful buck!!
Title: Re: odd colored buck
Post by: C-Money on December 28, 2008, 09:39:47 AM: Bet that one came from the north east. They have a few deer with that gean witch produces that coloration. I saw a doe that looked like that in Pennsylvania in the 80's. Cool pic's!

Post by: clay on December 29, 2008, 06:56:08 AM: It's a recessive genetic defect, and I've seen quite a few of them on Whidbey Island. I guess that the confined breeding population on the island causes the condition to be more prevalent. Anyway, if you want a good chance at seeing one, check out W.I. in the spring.
