The Natural State
I printed this out and I thought I would share. I am going to make several and laminate 1 for the fridge, 1 in my medical boxes ( birthing and general) 1 to keep on a clipboard with a dry erase marker so I can write stats down in an emergency so I will have them available for the vet call or to post here. What are your thoughts do I need any more than this and is there anything else I should add?
I think I am going to add med doses too.

That's great! Thanks for the post! If I were to add ANYTHING else, I might add just some basic medicines and dosages for a full grown doe or buck, but to be honest I probability wouldn't even do that to it! good job. :thumbsup
