Need advice about fawn bowel movements

jcawhorn · May 31, 2009

We have a fawn in the house with us and her bowels havent moved and she hasnt peed either that I ve seen. Wife has been wiping with warm wet wash cloth after feedings and the fawn maybe peeing a little on the wash cloth but for sure no poop. Shes eaten better than the other fawn we have in our house did at this point. I took her from her mom last night just before dark so its only been about 14 hrs or so that shes been here with us. Shes eaten three times for us (Just 1 oz each time but really sucked it down) and I saw her eat several times from her mom during the 36 hrs she stayed in pen with her. Just need a little input on this coz I know how fast things can go down hill with a baby! Thanks Jeff

Jeff, when we get a stubborn pooper, We rub directly on where it comes out with a fair ammount of pressure. Sometimes it takes a little while.This has always worked for us. Good luck. Allen

some of them are sooo sucked in that my big fat fingers won't work,you almost have to use a q-tip.... have you met my wife,Sharon she's a size 4. in severe cases we have used a baby glyserin enema,on the fawn, use lots of vegetable oil as lube.
