This is a true wild albino. It runs with these turkeys all year. The guy that took these pictures has been feeding this deer and turkeys for about 2 years.

I have never seen one solid white like that. Seen several with a white saddle or white patches, but never like that. Thanks for the pics.

It looks like it is rather tame, too. Just look at the cat! That is rare indeed.

What's up with the cat? It kinda takes something from the picture. Good pics though.

I have killed one that was piebald, or pintoed, what ever you want to call it, and, about five years ago, maybe more, there was a pair of deer around Biggersville that I saw several times from the highway that were both albino. One had the black form of albinism, though. One stark white and one jet black. Must have been twins.

Looking closely at the pics, I believe that the lack of pink eyes and pink hoof pedicles reveals only a pigmentation defect in the hair coat. Kind of resembles a non-native white fallow deer. Nice pics, though.

that deer's nose looks pink to me. every deer i have ever seen had a black nose....that is kinda a tip off to me that it may very well indeed be an albino. I can't see the deer's eyes too clear and its hooves are in the grass and i can't see them very well either....did you see a pic that i didn't see?

In the picture with the cat you can see the deer's "dew claws," (since I don't know what else to call them) you know, the toes that are higher up on the foot and they aren't pink or white, but they deffinatly aren't black. I'd call it an albino.
