Best stewed in a pot with water to remove everything but bone and antler..... then hang on the wall So how exactly is the best way to cook those horns? I haven't found a way to make them taste good yet.
However, those fawns look mighty tender and tasty.
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

My answer to all those "meat hunters" who claim you cant eat the horns is.....You cant hang the meat on the wall !

Something about breeding pens and messing with genetics that takes my respect away from a deer. Not for me. guess you better give up on most food products you buy at the grocery store as well...just because someone else grows them, don't mean you have to shoot them why would you lose respect for the deer? are they any less of a deer because they were selectively bred for? just like dogs, hogs, horses, cattle, most modern crops, etc...

Why is it that most deer in pens lose there hair and look like they have mange. I have asked many breeders and have never gotten a straight answer. Be careful in those pens. I know a gal that got gored after 4 years of hand feeding a buck!! Just looks like they are shedding their red summer coat and getting their grey winter coats to me. Yep summer to winter coat.

You make my point exactly.. just like chicken, feed hogs, cattle, horses etc.. go out and make a hunting show about hunting one of those and see where it gets you. They used to be deer that makes them livestock. Im am all for suplemental feed food plots and selective harvest, not against hi fences, but no ear tags for me.

I went and ran fences this weekend with my dad and got a glimpse of a 4 yr old. Tried to get a pic but wasn't fast enough. He was enormous.

I wouldn't shoot one with an ear tag in it but I would certainly release them on my ranch if I did not like the genetics there. How would shooting one of these deers sons or daughters be considered shooting livestock, assuming they were not shot in the breeder pen? I just don't get why people hate on the pen deer when a lot of valuable information that can be applied in the field has come from raising deer in a controlled environment.

I know a gal that got gored after 4 years of hand feeding a buck!! Other deer will pull hair off the others occasionally for added nutrition in a vitamin they lack. It's commonly seen late in the year.But those are just shedding summer coats.

If he is 2, what is he going to look like when he is over 5? Amazing what a good diet and genetics can produce...

Now thats a bonehead. One thing to in life to make copies of himself. The life of a breeder buck.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
