Safe is very important for young ones. How long do they usually stay?
Usually, just during the day. The mom's go out and graze during the day and then come back for their babies.
reply
Do the babies cry at all?

This one's been really quiet.
Last year, the fawn freaked out after it saw us and couldn't figure out how to get of our yard. It was sprinting back and forth along the back fence. I don't think it helped that this happened during a thunderstorm.
I had to go out and open the side gate and then try to herd the fawn in that direction.

they get injured when they freak out. Good on you to do that. I heard cats and deer get along pretty well.
reply
We still had a dog last year, which probably added to the freak out.
reply
Yeah, it might have. Was it a large dog?
reply
No, she was a medium dog.

I saw a big bear of a dog the other day. Freaked me out. The owner thought it would be funny to throw the ball near me while I was walking. This huge white thing came running at me. It is called a goldendoodle.
