omgggg I want antlers xD haha

They drop between Jan and April.. and even some after that. I found my first antler during mushroom hunting season. Get out there are start looking! It's not to late!

ohhhh I'm like a kid getting ready to go to ChuckECheese lol

xDD Just remember to go places deer go, look hard. Antlers are very hard to spot until you find your first one. Not every antler will be pristine like these are. Now that it's later in the season the rodents have had time to find them and widdle away at them for calcium. I found a nice antler just the other day that had almost every point chewed off half way. It's depressing but non the less unique.

Some things to keep in mind:
*Following deer trails is good but not always your best bet, the males tend to wander off a bit from the females to keep eye on everything. I don't know how many miles of deer trails we have wandered this year alone. Only have I found two antlers ever on a deer trail.
*The higher the terrain the better. Male deer like to look out to make sure things are safe before the venture forth. I have found most of my antlers at the top of a local quarry.
*Places where deer jump, like fences and down into creeks are good antler spots.
*Rubs, trees that have been rubbed on may have antlers under them but not always.
*I have also heard that deer beds, usually located in large grassy fields, can have antlers in them.
*Keep in open mind, they can literally be anywhere deer can roam.

Here are a bunch of the first ones I found back in '04: [link]

Wow those are nice! I'll have to literally swim through flea and tick spray before going xD haha but yeah it's so worth it! You don't always have to wait for mice to make them look clean and pretty...a good bleach bath will do :3 that's what my friend did to the entire friggin deer skull, with antlers still attatched.

Problem is mice eat them so they aren't as 'nice'. xD I hear you about the spray, it is getting about the time. You might go out and not find anything but then again you might! Never give up! We used to bleach things but they would always start falling apart. I don't know why, so now we just let them rot before bringing them inside.

O: Oh gosh lol didn't know they would fall apart

Maybe the bleach we used wasn't diluted enough.

o.o maybe!

hehe thats cute ^^

You can't DERP without HERP. ;)

It was a blast taking pics even tho I about died XD

Yeah it was HOTTT inside that suit... and waiting for Mar to take pictures was like waiting for oil paint to dry. LOL! I had a lot of fun too, good idea!

Cute!
