I wouldnt consider you a Bad Guy at all 8up. They are Fair Game here including Albinos. I just enjoy seeing Her Live on the Hoof in my Backyard and the Kids would disown me. They just Love seeing her.

Ive heard the same thing. For genetics, its likely better taken out. But if were infront of me...... I would probably let it walk.

Same in Michigan. Piebalds are legal but not albinos.

As for shooting, I encouraged my neighbor (whose land the deer was on most of the summer) to take the deer and then either get a full body mount or at least make a rug or blanket from the hide.

Nice piebald. One of my BILs shot a piebald a few years ago b/c it had a deformed jaw and it's legs were very short. My nephew did a full mount of her for his showroom. He had to fix her jaw so she looked good. Here is a pic of that mount.

That's a beauty!!!..... Most of the piebalds I've ever seen didn't have the big spots like that.... The one I shot a bunch of years ago was white all up the sides and flanks and some in the throat... But I think that spotted hide is even prettier....
