How much can a whitetail deers horns grow in a month pretty much the last month for there growth?

Whitetail deer antler can grow as much as a ½ inch per day during peak development. The development process can vary greatly depending upon the gentic%26#039;s and nutrition of each particular deer. During antler growth the deer’s antlers are very delicate and extremely sensitive to the touch or even damge by insects,fences other deer.....! Growth patterns can change with the health of deer(injury,damage,nutrition..!)

Deer don%26#039;t have horns, they have antlers.
Reply:Deer do not have %26quot;horns%26quot;. They have antlers. Horns are permanent and are never shed. Antlers are shed each year.
Reply:I%26#039;ve been told and read up to an inch a day. not sure when they stop growing, but we still have velvet here in PA
