    Hungry Doe, what do you feed?

    Okay thank you all :) lots of information! I will minimize carrots a bit. I was just giving them because I guessed they're full of energy. But yeah it does make her poops a bit softer than they should be. Offered her oats and she seems to really like them so will keep that up (maybe just 1/4 cup...

We keep permanent hay & pellets available but she seems really into carrots & greens - at least a whole carrot per day, colander full of fresh grass/dandelions & a small bunch of fresh parsley per day (we grow this stuff so it's not too expensive). She...

We even tried many times to...

    Doe building second nest?

    Hi everyone :love Thanks for the advice! (and for the welcome!) Yeah it seems like a great forum! To update on the mum, she was building a second nest. She's moved 2 of the kits into it and has used all of that fur she was pulling for them. So she has five in one nest and 2 in the other. I...

Our doe has just hat 7 kits yesterday, she did all the right things, pulling fur and moving around lots of hay making a nest just before the birth. She seemed calm and happy for the rest of the day.
