Latest deer breeding?

What is the latest you have ever witnessed deer breeding?  I saw a buck chasing a very small doe middle of last week.  Figured it was her first time in heat because she appeared to be a late doe from the 2011 crop.  Then yesterday saw a different buck chasing a mature doe, then saw him actually mount her.  I thought the 22nd of January was kind of late for this.

If the Doe comes in heat during the usual peak rut, gets breed and possibly miss carries or losses the fetus and the weather conditions are favorable she will come in heat a second time to try to bear young.

I have a camera pic from beginning January this year and the fawn still has noticeable spots on coat. I have pics of this deer in late Oct. streching neck to be able to suckle milk. not sure when it was born but a very late birth.

Gestation of a deer is what, roughly seven months?  I'd guess its momma was bred on Superbowl Sunday.

I say to hell with that pot o' gold.
