I'm sorry, I havn't been on here in a few days. They are around 2 1/2 weeks old now so I'm feeding them every 5-6 hours. They usually drink almost in entire 8 oz bottle with each feeding. They are white tails and one is a buck and the other is a doe. The doe is a little larger and has white socks. She also has a darker face and darker spots on her head. The male is a little smaller and has a lighter face and lighter spots. He also just has stripes on his feet instead of socks. If you look at both of them together you can tell a differace. They have differant attitudes to. The doe is more interested in people and wants to graze in the yard alll the time, and the male is a little more shy and jumpy, but all he wants to do is run and play outside. He also eats more then his sister.
