Early weak fawns

I have been mulling this over since it happened to a good friend of ours.

His deer had been vaccinated at the same time as ours. He gets his feed from another deer ranch but all of his does fawned a month too early and all 22 fawns were less than 2 lbs and too weak to survive. Couldn't even get up.

What in the world would cause every single doe to drop way too early?
 
It's really hard to say with your vaccinations and all but if I had a bunch of cattle calve early like that I'd be checking for lepto asap !! Just a thought it could be a bunch of things !!
