White-tailed Bucks sporting new antler growth

White-tailed bucks in North Texas are currently in the midst of rapid summer antler growth. Their developing racks are soft, highly vascularized tissue encased in velvet, which provides vital blood and nutrients to support bone development. The antlers can grow up to an inch per day during this time.

White-tailed Bucks with new antler growth

The white-tailed deer antler cycle is an annual process controlled by daylight and testosterone. It features three main stages: rapid growth in spring/summer, hardening and velvet shedding in early fall, and finally, natural shedding in late winter after the breeding season.

May: Antlers begin to calcify into bone and grow rapidly, covered in a soft, blood-rich skin called velvet. During this period, bucks consume high-protein spring vegetation to fuel this rapid bone growth.
