Randall owner of Waldrep Whitetail Farm here in Alabama. We had a fawn born last night that we found this morning to tag. When we located the buck fawn he was laying head down and ants were biting him around his eyes and rectum. We clean him up, removed all the ants, and checked his temp which was 95.3. We pulled him from mom and gave him colostrum with a syringe and got him on a heating pad. Applied neosporin to the ant bites. We have gotten him to take about 25ml of colostrum and 6 ml of bounceback from 9 am to 1pm. We gave him 25cc Draxin, .25cc Baytril, and 1/2ml of B12. His temp is up to 101 now. I really don't want to tube him if I don't absolutely have to. Am I missing anything or do you have any suggestions for things that would work better?
