Matt, with a mid January rut, when would a doe need to be harvested to get this information?
Around the beginning of March? Not in south bama. I helped Matt's old boss collect a bunch of fetal data and blood samples in Marengo, Greene, Clarke, Dallas and Wilcox over a 5 yr period, roughly 20 yrs ago. Lot of that went into the Alabama "Rut Map" that we show on here every year. We always started our data collection in those counties around May. I always assumed that the main reason was that with the sex ratios so far out of whack (this was before the free for all doe slaughter), there does being bred on their second and third cycles in some areas, which put them being bred all the way into late Feb and March. We wanted to make sure that if we took them out of the herd, to get the fetal data, that the fetus was bigger than a butterbean. Beginning of March is too early IMO for the south end of the state. We shot all the way into June in some of those years.
