Although it certainly was a nice gesture, and something my wife would probably have done, I dont think its legal to keep wild deer as pets underthese circumstances.

As stated check with the local DNR. I dont know about there but here in WV you cannot have it pinned up or in a barn it must be free roaming also you need a permit.

I've been guilty of picking one up also.I had no intentions of raising it for a pet,I knew where a wildlife rescue was.As it turned out the place closed down for good and I had a hard time finding him a home.It was 9:00 pm before I found him a home.I'm not sure I'd be so hasty on picking up another one,but rather let ma nature take her course.

Probably Illegal, if someone wants a deer for a pet, that's fine...but do it the right way. buy a fawn off of someone that legally raises deer, a deer farm.

If you live neer woods were there is a deer population or even if there isn't they make great pets once you have hand raised them if you have dogs they will become just like the dogs, we had a doe that we raised and she hung around her whole life no pens or anything to keep her in. During the rut every year she would get bread and had 4 fawns that we know of, we tried not mess with her fawns and they all left on their own after about a year.

Illcheck the regulations

I think u need to grow some teets so u can fedr and then lap here clean just like her muda wooda dun
