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.

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.
