How to raise a young deer

Deer is very popular in our country, the whole body of deer has a very high utilization value, and the breeding area in our country is also very large. When raising deer, if we want to ensure the normal and sustainable development of the deer herd, then the raising of young deer is very critical. The feeding of young deer directly affects the growth of deer in the later stage, and has a great relationship with its yield and quality. So when we raise deer, how can we raise young deer well? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Postpartum management

During the delivery period of the mother deer, we should have a special person to guard and deal with the abnormal situation in time to ensure the health of the mother deer and the young deer. After giving birth to the young deer, wipe the mucus off the young deer in time. If the temperature in the deer house is low, then pay attention to do a good job of heat preservation. Evaporate the moisture from the deer as soon as possible to encourage the deer to stand and walk early and eat colostrum normally. Then we also have to do a good job of editing and cutting ear numbers for each young deer, so that they can be easily identified and can be regularly sent to the mother deer for breast-feeding. During the lactation period of the mother deer, attention should be paid to maintaining good hygiene to prevent the young deer from smelling.

2. Artificial lactation

After the birth of the female deer, if the female deer dies for some reason, or if there is no breast milk, then we also have to do a good job of artificial lactation for the young deer. Artificial lactation milk can use milk or goat milk and so on. When breastfeeding, we should reasonably adjust the lactation times and dosage according to the growth age, birth weight and actual growth of the young deer. Artificial lactation should ensure that the breeders have enough patience, and the breeders should be close to the young deer to avoid fear. And every time after lactation, the lactation utensils should be disinfected in time to avoid producing bacteria, resulting in indigestion, diarrhea and other adverse phenomena in young deer, thus affecting the growth of young deer.

3. Replenish as early as possible

When raising young deer, supplementary feeding as soon as possible can enhance the physiological function of digestive organs of young deer. So if there are conditions, you can be weaned early. When the young deer are about 2-3 weeks old, a small trough can be set up in the protective fence. Then put an appropriate amount of mixed concentrate in the trough to allow the young deer to eat freely. Mixed feed is best mixed with warm water to make it sticky. Replenish the deer about once a day, and the feeding amount should be kept at the end of the meal. Then, with the growth of the young deer, some grass and other green feed should be supplemented appropriately. When the young deer gradually eat coarse feed, it is necessary to set up a sink in the deer house to maintain an adequate amount of drinking water.

4. Nursing care of weaned deer.

After the young deer are weaned, attention should be paid to keeping them in groups according to the sex, size and physique of the young deer. When the young deer are just weaned, the young deer are restless and their appetite decreases. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen management and increase the number of feeding times every day, about 5 times a day. Then in the evening, we should also pay attention to feeding an appropriate amount of green roughage, rough feeding should be based on easily digestible forage leaves, which should be chopped and fed to the young deer. Then keep an adequate supply of water and minerals. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the supplement of nutrients such as microorganisms and trace elements to ensure the healthy growth of young deer.
