Fawn Help

I have a buck fawn that just got over what I believe to have been EHD. The fawn was 3 days old when I brought him in and is now 7 days old. Yesterday he had trouble standing half the time. I thought this was due to being in the dog kennel except for feedings, thus i kept him out all day to walk and play in the house. Today, he is still acting "drunkish" when it comes to his walking and not being able to walk or stand (always follinw over to the side). I gave him banamine and Bo-Se yesterday. Any ideas.

Thanks as always.

Is he eating, if so how much? What are the stools like?

Give him Vitamin B 12

sorry for the lack of info, i gave b12 with the banamine and bo-se. this is the fawn that is drinking out of a bowl... 4 oz per feeding of milk replacer mix.

thanks.

If it is a balance issue maybe it is the ears? Or is it a muscle issue?

CameronCrow · Jul 19, 2009

it seems to be balance, dont think its in the ears but not sure. He can stand on hif front legs, but those back legs just sway to one side and he doesnt catch himself, so that back side just hits the ground.

Cameron does he look healthy or do you think he may be weak.....is he eating enough?

CameronCrow · Jul 19, 2009
