whats the growth off of this buck???

[mr. buck]

any thoughts on age would be helpful too. Seen plenty of animals with hernias, which is my best guess, but this just looks different.

This. We have a buck with the same from a fence. He had it for 2 years and is aptly named Tuft 8 for the tuft of hair hanging off his flank. He's now 8 years old.

Dont know if its this but....I have a horse that had a hernia when he was a weanling and it looked a lot like this. Doesn't hurt them but I had the horses surgically removed for aesthetic purposes.

Mr. Buck, Shackelford county deer? Davidamfan, Shackelford county deer? I think you guys are getting pictures of the same buck there.

If so, I may know the deer's mother. She has a growth in the same place and has to be 10 years old and still dropping twins. We call her skin tag.
