Antlers


Picture from Domestic Candy


"After deer mating season, deer shed antlers in early December through March. The amount of time that a deer retains his antlers depends upon his nutrition and genetics.
Antler shedding occurs over a 2- to 3-week period. The shedding process does not cause any discomfort to the deer. The tissue beneath the antler and the pedicles gradually disintegrates, causing the antlers to loosen. The antlers eventually fall off. New antlers will grow in the spring to prepare for a new mating season."
