Is she Sick??
 

This is one of the deer that is from my first week of trail cam pictures. None of the other deer look this skinny and bony at all. Do you think shes sick. She dont look healthy at all!!

Body posture in the 1st pic looked like she's stretching. Otherwise she looks ok to me.

I'd say she was stretching too, but definitely none too fat though. She could be a little anorexic.

I know shes stretching but i have about 20 pictures of her and compared to the other deer on my camera, she just looks like a pile of bones.

Does look alittle bit on the lean side. Could be from stress of first time fawning. I agree with the stretching photo. Over all, she appears healthy though.

not sick just really skinny

i would say very skinny. does the are have a good food source? if not, you might want to get a food plot in there to help her and the other deer out.

This site is on a cattle farm, so theres always plenty of forage and minerals sites are everywhere. That was my point, theres plenty of food, but as someone said and they might be right, it could be first time fawning stress. She does have a fawn.

I think she has an illness of some kind, she just looks to thin to me.

She looks as if she might have had an injury at some point in time to me. That one leg doesn't appear very normal to me. So I am thinking it could have been hit so she doesn't use it very much.. I am no professor on these things though...

She doesn't have a fawn?? My guess would be that she possibly had a fawn in her and miss carried close to the time she was giving birth (maybe within a month at most?)and may have never birthed the dead fawn because it was dead to far prior to giving labor and her bady already started to absorb it back. We see it in cattle once in awhile where the calf dies and the cow never gives birth. They end up getting an infection and have a hard time because their body is absorbing the calf back into them but since the calf was so far along the bones are fully hardened and sits in the uterus. With cows we have to go in and pull everything out and get them cleaned out to get rid of the infection. My guess is she may be fighting some sort of infection of an internal nature such as that because she looks healthy but just underweight due to an infection that probably won't kill her unless she doesn't get rid of it before winter. She don't look like she is in pain or suffering and I personally wouldn't eat her if she does have an infection or something so I'd let her walk and do her a favor closer to winter if she is still in ruff shape.
