No. Though they are claimed to be by those who do not truly understand or know the benefits and, essentially, the ingredients of antler velvet from not only deer but elk as well, they are not the "new steriod." They do contain IGF and EGF which are growth "hormones" or rather growth factors, but not so much that they are considered steriods. Antler velvet does not contain steriods, but the growth factor they do contain is what stimulates growth in muscle and bones. There are many other benefits to this "new" product, see the related link below for more information.
Antlers on deer are bonematerial - During growth they are covered with a skin that helps provide blood and thus nutrients to the antler. When the antler growth stops due to testosterone-levles rising in the animal, the skin is rubbed off - therewith creating the colorization and "staining" of the antler.
