Raising FAWNS

Hollowroad Whitetails · May 10, 2011

Hello:

I am trying to compile a list of supplies that are needed in order to bottle raise fawns. Here is a list of some of the items that have been recommended and I am seeking comment on anything I should change, add or subtract. Any information you can provide is greatly appreciated. Also, I know this was discussed previously but can someone give me the thread link dealing with bottle feeding schedules?

1. Goat Colostrum

2. Pritchard Nipples

3. Kid Bottles

4. Milk Replacer Powder

Thanks

I like to use unsented baby wipes to make them go potty. It helps keep them clean and being moist it doesn't get them sore. Rick
