A few years ago, my dad told me about a fawn that would follow him around. Maybe it was a freak encounter so I wrote it off as coincidence. Then one day,I was in the woods by my dad's house and there she was. She was really friendly and dad would feed her some corn out of a bucket. A few days past and I got a call from my neighbor asking if I had seen his pet deer. I then realized why she was so friendly. She was found in a hay field at harvest time so my neighbor brought her home and raised her on goats milk. That was a few years ago. My neighbor feed her sweat feed and she grew much faster then the other deer. She has had three seasons of fawns and this year she has triplets. It's crazy walking to your stand and having her follow you through the woods. He fawns freak out and run off but she still knows me and will come to me if I call her name. I worried about her so my neighbor has a bright orange collar for her. She still goes home but spends most of her time on the farm between our two properties. Everyone in our area knows of her. It has been fun watching her travel patterns with the wild deer. I have only told a few folks outside my area. It brings up mixed thoughts and the DNR would frown on it but she can go were she wants and she will not go to strangers.
