I went down to the farm where she is kept at. I help the owner take care of her captive deer. Anyhow the doe was bad, feverish, could not get up although she did once with me and just stood there which is unlike her cause she normally bolts. She was very imaciated. We decided to put her down. Afterwards I did an autopsy on her though I am no vet . I immediatley noticed on the outside alot of bruising on her right shoulder area. When I moved her leg it was quite obvious she had a broken shoulder and upper bone fracture. I could move her shoulder towards her back with no limits. I skinned her out and sure enough the bone fractures and smell of infection though nut puss was evident. It smelled soured. I eventually field dressed her out and found no indications of organ bruises or leasions in her heart, liver, lungs and feound no intestinal blockages in her stomachs or intestines. Did not see any visible signs of worms or snails either, again, I'm no vet.The contents in her stomachs was dark green tary paste. no blood in the remaining stools so, without blood work or otherwise. Looks like the humped back might have been due to her arthritis which we know she had and also the shattered shoulder. When she walked she really didnt indicate that she was injured.
Thanks for all the responses,
JC
