I pulled cards on 2 farms and noticed on one that I had poults running around and several doe with fawns. Great I thought! Well I check the other card and I have deer and turkeys but none and I mean not a single one have younguns with em. These farms are maybe 5-7 miles apart. Why do y'all think this is?
 
Happenstance.
Wouldn't worry, at least not at this point.
Too little data to draw any conclusions.

I'm running cams over a large area, with some cams being over 10 miles from others,
and no matter what you see now, the opposite can be the case by fall.
Many of the places (doe sinks) with no buck pics now,
turn into the places you see the most bucks during the rut.
And vice-versa.

And typically, some cam locations are just not conducive to lots of fawn pics,
even though you may get their Momma, and fawns may be nearby.
 
I guess they all have their own territories. I've seen places that you couldn't buy a picture of a buck before the rut and places where all you could see was bucks. Once they start relocating due to the rut and their seasonal range shifting things sort of balance out. It's possible that either the does on camera didn't have their young with them or even one place had a saturation of predators the other place didn't?????
