The red swollen lump was the reaction to the infection from the wound or piercing of the hide from the tick. Ticks have a barbed point on their nose and when you pull them from a tough deer hide it almost always breaks off in the host. I know pet deer are neat and a novelty as pets but do not trust them. In Oregon the "people" own the wildlife and you can be fined for keeping one a pet. A legal rehab center must report all wild animals they receive. Once a wild animal loses their fear of people they are unsafe.

We called the game warden and he came an checked her out. He said sense she was wandering and fawns where not made to wander untill mama comes back that she had been left for a while and one of two things happened, her mother had triplets and had to abandon one or her mother was on the road dead. She is complety legal game warden talked to animal control and she is to left with me. We had room for her to roam and bottle feed her. She is a doe unless someone tries to take her baby "when or if she has one" she is harmless. She has NOT lost her fear of humans. She won't come near strangers unless me or my father is there with her. She is not a pet. She has not collar, or bed, doesn't come in the house. She knows her name but other-wise she is wild.

Think she will be fine......don't worry and enjoy.....her even her fawns , which she may have this June. She will not attack you. Here in Ohio 50% of doe fawns get bred their first fall, and have single fawn.

Do You have domestic animals like sheep, goats horses etc.? if so research brucellosis, hair loss syndrome, chronic wasting disease and tuberculosis in deer and elk and then decide if you want the deer hanging around or just frequenting.
