@mousiegirl  not sure since their spots will be gone before antlers bud and I can't see under them for gender.  Someone asked the same thing the other day.

@MamaWick   The two dots are dark, so it makes sense that it would be for growing antlers, but does grow them also, so we will see.

 

I was watching a video of a doe giving birth to twins, so posted the link, then continued watching and it was the following day and the doe was having convulsions just trying to stay on her feet and I was so shocked that I left the site and deleted my post.  I googled what would cause this, I assume the doe died, and could find nothing about a doe, only fawns.  The only way to know what/why it happened, would be to go back, but I can't bear to watch it, and I suppose the fawns had a dire ending also once she was gone.

Could they be any cuter?!!

No I can't imagine!

But every day you give us the most amazing photos of deer and some of all wildlife I've ever seen.

All those spots! I just would have to kiss and hug each little one and their mamas too.

And that last picture of that tiny one with the sweetest face, oh my goodness!

Is the third picture from last Tracy and her little one?

Then your precious little Cricket with the cutest bright eyes, that sweet face.

 

Thank you over and over @MamaWick!❤️

@MamaWick 

You certainly titled this thread right!

Is this another newbie (sp?) or the one earlier posted?  Either way, it's simply adorable .. feeding from Mom & napping.  Wonderful to see additions to your deer family.  I think your Sweet Cricket was trying to immitate the baby napping.  She's adorable also. 

Thank you for sharing.

@MamaWick  They are beyond adorable and amazing little creatures. I know you're having a lot of fun watching them. Looks like you've got yourself a little deer farm lol. Cricket is such a doll too. Thanks for sharing.

@MamaWick   I just can't!   They are so adorable that words escape me. Thank you so much for taking these pictures and sharing them with us. 

I could just look at them again and again wishing I could give them all carrots.  I would love to hug them as well, but I know that I should not, so I'll hug them in my heart.  

Woofs and kisses to the sweetest and most beautiful Cricket. Love her clear eyes. 💕
