TBH Question

[doghouse]

I think I have a doe with triplets. Anybody ever seen this? Two larger fawns and the baby, lots smaller, taking the left overs. He is healthy but lots smaller. I've seen it in goats occasionally but never with deer. Anybody else? Just curious.

I've never seen it but surely it's not all that rare? Not sure.

I believe it's around 10% of fawns are triplets. You don't see it often, because they don't always make it. Lots of mouths to feed and more chance for predation.

I know. Does have two nipples so the runt just gets what ever is left after the two bigger ones get through. I saw it a few times with goats.
