What is gripe water??? And where do you find that & lactase? Also, does the honey help bloat? That is what I am having problems with---whenever she drinks her milk, she seems to bloat up. I decreased the milk (& added water & yogurt), but still hear swishing in her stomach. Appetite is also decreasing due to the "fullness" of her stomach, I think. Any suggestions anyone?

Nothing seemed to work on this fawn!! Conclusion is the fawn is doing great, but I had to move one of my tamest does that I had seen her fawn nursing off another doe in the barn and put her in a stall. This fawn started nursing right away. Left them inside for about a week and turned them out with some yearlings that had fawned and she goes from each doe and nurses just fine. Needless to say it always happens to the best she is 0064 over Poncho.
