Deer pox?

Hi,

I'm new to this forum. We have a fawn about 2 1/2 weeks old that had come in with dry scab like bumps all over her. Along her back but not visible unless you touch her, along her head and on her muzzle. Over the past week they have become more prominant. They are dry and you can peel them off but they continue to grow and get bigger. They remind me of warts you can peel off. They don't seem to irritate her. We had a vet out and the vet was somewhat stumped, took a skin sample and her best guess is it's a deers version of goatpox. And if left alone should clear up on its own. We recently had another fawn come in but unfortunatly that fawn suffered from other health issues and didn't make it but she also had the bumps.

Anyone ever heard of this? I can't find a single thing on the internet, except for tumors and as of now they look nothing like the tumors deer can get. She is a white-tail.



Thanks a bunch.



Oh, and if you peel off the ones on her back a few pieces of hair come with them. It honestly reminds me of the bumps cats get when they get allergies to fleas, but i'm probably way off.

I tried to explain in detail the best I could.

thanks a bunch! I was wrong she's a black tailed deer. I took some pictures, the warty things seem to have come off her face, she still has them on her body though here's what her face looks like now the warts took the hair with it.
