[QUOTE="J Hoy, post: 1742833, member: 16398"] Interesting. The white-tailed deer in our area had 2/3rds females each year from 2014 through 2018. No one has gotten sex ratios since then so don't know what the ratios were since then. For 15 years prior to 2014, the sex ratio was from somewhat skewed in favor of males to highly skewed in favor of males, with 2/3rds of the fawns being males between 1995 and 2001. It is also interesting that ranchers in Lithuania and Australia are having similar high female to male sex ratios. In humans, it was found that "[B]there was significant higher rate of male fetuses who were conceived by mothers with alkaline vaginal pH[/B] and also there was significant higher rate of female fetuses who were conceived by mothers with acidic vaginal pH." I don't know if there are studies that show that to be true with female ruminants. [/QUOTE]
