[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 8146224, member: 44728"] It’s not easy, but fortunately I rarely need to intervene. Deer are our least most domesticated farm animals and don’t respond well to much in the way of intensification. I maybe get one bad calving every 2 years out of 120 hinds. There isn’t really a lot we can do to help. I would think that just about every deer farmer has tried and it is nearly always completely as useless. Either the calf will die, or the hind and usually both. Vets can’t really help and if one is real difficulties, it is best to euthanise them. The best thing to do is if you see one about to calve, go away and come back much later in the day or the next day. They will usually manage all by themselves. It’s purely natural selection. Problem Calvers’ died out generations ago. [/QUOTE]
