It's so peaceful to just burn one and sit with her for hours while she plays and grazes outside.

Do you plan to domesticate it completely? Or are you going to try and ween it back into the wild?

She thinks I'm her mom and stays right in my barn till I call her. She'll be a pet for life.

Not exactly sure, till they get hit by a car as far as I know.

Think it's probably close to 20 years in captivity. In the wild it's obviously much shorter.

So I've taken down Baby's fence as of yesterday afternoon and she's now free to move about on and off my farm as she pleases.
The road I live on isn't high traffic but it gets it's fair share and the speed limit is 55mph so as long she minds the cars she'll be alright.
She had a few close calls already last night but she was also very curious about what everything was and not paying much attention.
I've gone outside already this morning and she came running up when called so hopefully things continue to go well.

I have a blaze orange collar on her and a lot of land, there aren't that many hunters that come around where I live and it's a ways off till hunting season.
I don't like caging animals if they don't need to be and she needs the space to run.

Since the fence was down all night I actually had a little trouble sleeping. After I took the fence down yesterday she went straight for the road and was hanging around it for a little while and that's when she had her close calls with the cars. I was almost positive I was going to be picking her up from the ditch today.She is turning into a proper young lady.
