    I've darted hundreds, and never hit here before. In the process of darting a 2 yr old buck today, I hit him very low in the gut. Low in the gut one inch back of where the rib cage ends. So low that if I'd been an inch lower I'd have missed him. He went down as fast as though he was hit in a...

    Fawn losing hair bad

    We have a fawn that is almost a month old and when he was born he had no hair on his face. Over the last couple weeks he has lost all the hair off his legs up to his knees. We are concerned if he is going to get hair by time winter gets here. Is there anything that we can give him or not.

    This is the first time I have posted on this site since I lost most of my deer. I am thinking about getting more deer, but the past still haunts me as I truly never found out what killed my deer.

    Spreading manure- good or bad?

    Dragging the breeder pen would spread the deer waste which should accelerate decomposition. But will the thinly spread waste create a bigger problem if the deer are grazing over the same ground? Thanks in advance!
