Tracy has a couple of new scars. This one on her eye and another on her neck 😔

Poor baby lost part of his ear

Hanging in...

The close ups of the deer are amazing! I love the one where the doe seems to be talking to you. I would find it so uplifting to have the forest friends be so close and trusting, they do feel at ease with you, MamaWick and that is so delightful!! Great photos, always!

Seeing Cricket snuggled in your arms is precious and I know she feels safe there, I hope she is holding on and eating. Sweet Cricket.

Aahhh Cricket is cuddling with her mom.....sending her hugs.....

It looks like its CARROT TIME at the Wicks!!! And everyone is enjoying their treat!

Poor Tracey and that poor Buck ...... i wonder if the scars, scratches, and missing ear part are from territorial fights amongst themselves or is it another critter like a coyote that attack the deer.....???

I wonder if the deer could have got cut by barbed wire. Great pics as always! Especially the one of @MamaWick and her baby.

@MamaWick Wonderful pictures of your dear deer. Tracy looks like she's healing nicely. Maybe she just got too close to a sharp branch or something from the building material in the area. Oh my, I just noticed that poor buck's ear. It looks like he won the fight.

Last night a young doe came to our front door and set off the ring camera at around 11:30 pm. I think one of your herd sent her. She had a nice snack of new growth from one of the bushes. I didn't mind as this bush needs to be pruned. She was polite and left the hostas and flowers alone.

Woofs, continued hugs, kisses, and gentle belly rubs for sweet Cricket. Glad that she is engulfed in your farms. The love you have for her can be felt through the picture. As we like to say, it should be framed. 😍

Cricket, you, and PapaWick are still in my prayers and good thoughts. 💕

Cricket is eating very little. The anti-nausea med has been given for 5 days so far. Just picked up the appetite stimulant med and first dose given.

The love and trust that Cricket and you have for one another shines through to the viewer of your very moving photo. My heart was warmed by the sweet way she has melted into you.

Such love.

I am overjoyed that she just ate her meal!

Cricket is by her mama -- so sweet. I hope the stimulant works.

I feel so sorry the Buck with the bad eye. Some of the deer are roughed up with wounds. I wish they could all be in captivity to be safe. Did you see a piece of the deer's ear is missing?

@MamaWick Cricket does not want to leave you. She is fighting it with every ounce of her being. My last cat lived to 19-1/2 years old and my mom would always tell me that she doesn't want to leave you. It's so true -- our pets love us so much because we give so much love.

Cricket and you snuggling...beautiful.

Thanks again for the deer photos. Tonight, for the first time this season, I saw a doe with her fawn. I was getting worried because I had not seen the babies this Spring or Summer. Maybe they were hiding.

@MamaWick

This photo of you both cuddling is very precious & sentimental. Sweet Cricket, hang in there as best you can. I hope you're still eating & drinking somewhat. Your Mama & Papa Wick love you & so do your fans that post here.

Looks like it's mostly "Buck Day" at the Wick home. A few stopped by to chat & others for their photo to be taken. It's quite the relationship you have with your deer family. They know your love & choose to return each day for more love. Thank you for sharing.

This just makes me so sad to see that Tracy has scars and the one buck lost part of his ear! I wish I could take care of all of them! I wish they could always be safe from harm.

And that pic of you holding your darling Cricket brought tears to my eyes! I am so glad she is so loved and alot of us here love her too!

Sorry that Tracy and a buck have a few little injuries. I hope they heal.

That picture of Mama Wick and Cricket just melts my heart. It just captures the mutual 💕 love between them both. I am so happy Cricket ate a meal. I think of this darling pup so often during the day and hope she pulls through, if it is meant to be.

Sending hugs to Cricket, all the deer, and the loving Wick family.
