Ghost Life Member Jun 27, 2007 #4 Oh, I thought I would add something here that is related. For those that didn't know...deer eat dirt! Ha Seriously, that is why some of these old mineral sites look like deep holes. I was just down to a deer farm to let my kids bottle feed the fawns. In each fawn crate they have a little dog dish full of fresh dirt. It is a needed part of their diet shortly after birth. They bottle feed all the doe fawns so they are tame and can be worked, given vaccinations and care. The buck fawns are left with their mother so they will remain "wild" and grow up to be TV stars on your favorite TV shows. But that's a whole different topic best to be left alone for right now.
