I was just laying around with my girlfriend and she looked at my deer mount and asked if they have eyelids? I thought about it and I'm not sure, I think that they do. What do yall think?

They have two sets, one for daytime use and one for nighttime. The daytime ones are on the outside. The nightime ones on the inside. They opperate seprately on two different ocular nerves. I believe BGG did his masters thesis on this.
In some deer, those nerves get crossed with the rectal nerves and they get a really crappy outlook on life. It is called view rectitis.
