Whats wrong with this doe?
 

This deer just isnt looking very good. I have know idea whats going on here. maybe some of you have seen something like this? I will be taking her out of the heard this year if she comes around. http://s310.photobucket.com/albums/k...t=PICT0117.mp4

Check this link out
 

The link describes a report taken by conservation officers about three does with badly swollen udders, Local vets made a guess and said they thought it was mastitis, Which I know is also more common in cows. Also try google and search mastitis in deer.

Hope this helps

thats bizar...

well it does look like mastitus but also if her fawns died and she never would have gotten the milk out of her udder it would swell up and she looks like a goat lol

that doe needs taken out. asap!

I don't think you will have to worry about taking her out, she isn't going to make it that long.

If you take her out, does your State allow for another tag if you bring the deer in and after inspection they determine it is foul? Just curious, as NY does allow this since we have had to deal with CWD over the years.

She's eating and moving fine, looks a bit thin, but overall not unhealthy.

nature will take care of its own. She does not appear to be suffering, hasn't been hit by a car, why interfere? If you want to take her as a hunter, go for it, but I'd suggest that if you wouldn't take her "normally" don't take her now.

:eek: GOO.....

I'd have to say it's a mosquito bite... Swelling should go down in a day or two.

I was watching a hunting show a couple days ago and they killed a buck with something like that on it, same spot to but no udders. Maybe a tumor?

That mosquito must have be as big as a hawk. Don't let it bite you, its libel to suck all your blood out... lol.....

Thats what happens when the Billy Goat gets out and starts mating with the deer population!!! :bash: Keep those nasty goats penned up!:happy0157::happy0157:

I was thinking a black fly...haha. I've never seen that before! :party0005:

That's what happens to cows but i'm not an expert

That looks like a diva deer. Looks like breast implants to me lol, i would guess 38 DD jmo.

:eek2::eek2::eek2: overall not unhealthy? sorry but i totally disagree. take it out and leave it lay(hate to say that but you really should). it's not doing the rest of the deer any good. not one to let breed and all it's doing is consuming food for the healthy deer. plus would you eat it? i bet not!!!!!!!!!
