leg

Hello Everyone: I had a fawn born yesterday whose front hooves are turned under causing it to walk on the knuckle where the leg meets the hoof. I spoke to my vet and she indicated that it is a common tendon problem most likely caused by the way the fawn was laying in the womb. She said to...

I have my Fawn Cradle done but what do you guys prefer on leg hole lay-outs. Last year i just had two sets of hole but i felt like they were too far from some of the smaller fawns. Anyone have 3 sets of holes? and what are the distances between each hole. thanks Derek

We have a doe fawn that I noticed yesterday has a large abscess on her back leg. It is on the inner side of her thigh, and swelling seems to go up into her belly area. She is eating and drinking, but walking a bit different, like it hurts if touches her other leg (which I would imagine it does)...

Our largest buck broke is previously injured left rear leg. We spoke to our vet who said to just leave him be and he'll be ok. He doesn't seem to be in any pain or anything and eats and drinks fine. It's broken just above the "knee". Anyone have any suggestions, or is this the best course...

I have a buck fawn that we treated with nuflor gold for pneumonia 3 weeks ago. He picked up good after treatment but now has gone backwards again. The last five days he has gotten thin and he has two lumps that have appeared. The first on his back bone a mushy lump under the skin we could not...

I posted about a week ago when this doe got in the fence and tore her leg about 2 inches in length right above her foot. Now her leg looks infected and she is nursing her fawn, can I dart her with Baytril or what do you recommend?

What would you do with a pregnant doe that got in the fence and tore her front part of her leg open and her skin is hanging there? She seems to be doing fine just limping around a little.

I had a doe that had two fawns 1 1/2 hours ago. One that has a broken front leg between the knee and ankle. Would you pull the fawn now, or in the morning so it could get the colostrum from the doe. The mother is cleaning it. looks like she is taking care of it. When I pull it I was going...

Hello new to this forum and looking for some helpful info! I have raised a doe for the past year. We found her as a baby and have had her ever since. Throughout the winter she would come and go as she pleased and seemed fine. Recently we hadn't seen her for several weeks and two days ago she...

We have a small whitetail deer farm in Ohio -- www.rustyswhitetails.com -- and my question is...our two month old bottle fed buck fawn broke his back leg last night...above the knee (about an inch or so) and it was kind of dangling...so my husband put a splint on it and wrapped it with an ace...

Found one of my bottle fawns with a broken back leg this morning. It is broke below the hock....no bone sticking out. Wondering what everyone thought I should do. Was thinking of wrapping with cotton and some vet wrap to stabilize and putting her in a smaller pen to let heal. Or should...

It was last year this day that my dad found the little buck laying by the barn, and would not get up. This buck is now known as "CUT LEG". There was a published story in "DeerTracking", and LOTS of help and advise from all over the country on this buck.You can look back on the "Old Forums" to...

I had 3 dogs come to my pen today and try to get in. The predator wire kept them out but they chased the deer around the pen causing them to hit the fence. One of the deer is walking with her back bowed up, I am assuming internal injuries. I ahve another one with a broke leg. Will this heal...

I thought I would post this for others who may have the same problem. A month ago I ran my yearling does through the chute to give them their EHD vaccination. All went smooth except I noticed one doe(MY FAVORITE!) had a little blood on her leg as she ran out of the barn. I looked all over the...

Hey any help is appreciated on this! I have never had this happen and this doe started this swolen leg about 2 weeks ago and it just keeps getting worse. What meds would you guys reccomend? I have done La200 but dont know if we should put her down and lance it. She is not limping or acting like...

An update on the buck that cut his leg. He is just being a deer. He walks on it now, but bone is still showing. It is slowly closing up. Still dont have answers on what was best to do.
