Hello to all,


 


We rescued a baby fawn on June 11th of this year.  She is much smaller than the fawns that are running wild around our place.  She stays outside most of the time now but she does come in at least twice a day for her bottles.  She is eating very good and likes sweet feed, carrots, apples and of course her greens.


 


The other day I was taking burrs our of her hair and she has two dark spots on her head where you would think antlers would come on a buck.  My husband felt her head and said he thought there were little bumps there.


 


What do any of you make of this?


 


Thanks in advance

It's likely just part of the camouflage God made for her. Most doe fawns have darker hair there.
 
Perfectly normal..all my doe fawns have black spots there..and bucks for that matter...My first yr farming and having babies i thought i had all 20 bucks born just looking at their heads :rolleyes:
