Albino Deer?

[Zorros Shack]

There is always that case of a albino deer on some ones trail cam. And then they go put the pictures on the outdoor sites. I was wondering if any one has ever seen one the rarest deer you'll ever see. And if you could would you hunt it? I would never shoot one. But there is a old military base somewhere where tons of albinos live.

I have seen a piball deer if thats how you spell it. white and brown mix. I was working and saw it cross the road we were working on. It had a fawn with it and the fawn was all brown. It was pretty cool looking. Also there was a gentleman in my town in Maine that shot an albino doe that had an 8pt rack. Yes I said doe. 185 ponds. Thats pretty weird also.

I guy used to work with shot an albino buck here in NY a few years ago. I'll see if I have the picture still. It turns out it was an excapee from a game ranch. There is a large Piebald population on an old base near Syracuse/Utica area. We've seen a piebald doe just outside of Ballston Spa a few times over the past 2 years also.

i chased a big ten point for four years we called pants. He had white legs from shoulders down.
Saw him several times, from a four to a ten. Last year was a foggy morning going to work, two years ago. He was huge with a 20" plus spread. What ledgends are made of.
My brother shot a piebald doe in the southern zone, had 7" spikes. Couldn't eat the gravy.

The military base you are thinking of is Sampson in NY's Finger Lakes.  My mother lives within a few miles of there.  They aren't albinos, though.  I actually saw a white deer off base during gun season a few years ago, but it was two fields away across another landowner's property.  Talk about something that gets your blood pumping!

i seen a albino last year on thanksgiving morning.it was a doe and i didnt have a doe tag left filled it early and was buck hunting.if i would have had a doe tag i would have shot it and had a full body mount done up.
many years ago my grand father seen a pibald buck and he said it never gave him a shot oppertunity or else he would have atleast took a shot at it.
about 4 years ago my father shot a buck and while gutting it out we noticed all 4 hooves were white pale like human nails and upto the nuckle/ankle was pure white.not sure if that would considered pibald tho.

Ive seen 6 in my lifetime(im 23 years old) , one during hunting season but i wasnt hunting deer, i was ony 16 and was hunting grouse, it wasnt completly white but kinda looked like a cow and was a big doe. Few years back there was 2 hanging out in the same field, what are teh odds! Both bucks one a 4pt the other a 6, they were quite an attraction ppl watched them everynight and they were always in the same field next to a farm hosue,they may have been brothers. Seen a doe last winter in a field that had a white rump and white legs, a pure white doe this spring on side of the road and the last one wasnt alive but still counts i spose, was one my friends father shot years ago, a buck, has a head mount at the camp.
