Flooded pens in IL! Suggestions??

Yes, you can put the fawns back - we have done that. Picked them up for a day and put them back OR picked them up for a while and then when another doe has fawns, rub some of the afterbirth on the fawn you've picked up and put it in with the rest - she usually just adopts it.
 
Hey thanks alot guys what a help. I am going to go this weekend and get some for when the time comes here.

Arrowhead, Hey good luck with BM Wildfire.Caint wait till he grows out as a two year old! Is he going to be the next Sudden Impact?
 
Here is one we had a few years ago just a hair under 1.5lbs. My hands are small so it really doesn't show how small this fawn really was.

Aaron did that little one survive to adulthood, It would probably be almost impossible for one that small to make it in the wild, how would he reach the udder? At least in captivity they get a chance.
 
Drew,



I am sure that you would be fine using calf colostrum. I have only used it once on a fawn that was going to die regardless what I used. Just didn't have anything else at the time. Last year I used First-Fawn colostrum supplement from La Belle, Inc. Worked great. Use it on all of my fawns the first week. Their # is 1-888-599-6605.
