Who has ever seen a doe with triplets? I have always heard that if a does had twins it ment that the deer population was health. I saw a doe with triplets this morning in Nashville suburbs. There is not much deer habitat around although there is a good bit of it within a twenty minute drive. What would you think about this?
 
I have seen it a few times, in the last 42 years, but it is
rare at anytime and in all habitats.
 
Always a good sign.

Another of my proudest kills was a doe with triplet button bucks at heel. There are three young bucks that probably didn't disperse!

If a doe has triplet fawn bucks, the buck to doe ratio is probably really bad

The concept of fawn sex determination still hasn't been deciphered. Individual locations seem to show patterns, but when large data sets are combined, no consistant pattern can be found.
 
I killed a doe one year on a January hunt that had 3 baby fetuses in her, each about as big as your thumb.
 
Sounds about the right timing Winchester. Fetuses are generally recognizable at around 38 days after conception.
 
In the burbs?.....are you kidding, such selection of shrubs, hostas, flower gardens green everything from personal watering systems of businesses and home owners alike..... i used to live in Georgia and i can tell you as a fact most of the monsters now are coming from metro counties such as fulton and gwinett which are absolutley covered up with "people"......the most recent issue of GON mag i picked up while on vacation was about such a deer i believe in fulton cty.......

Exactly.

Look at the QDMA's map of B&C and P&Y entries per county across the U.S. There are "hot-spots" at every major metro area. Not only do metro areas protect bucks into the older ages, but the food resources are excellent in all those gated communities.
