Hi Freud!
so sorry to hear about your doe. About the tubing; When I had to do it for a little guy that had the same condition as yours (only this little one was unable to suck) I started him off at 60cc of his mom's milk every 8-12 hours and used to put him back with his mom afterwards as I wanted him to learn to suck from her and bond so I wouldn't end up bottle feeding him. I would give him less each day as to force him to his mom looking for more and once his eyesight came back, he handled it from then on (about a week). I know your situation is a little different as you lost your doe. Can you get milk from another to tube your little doeling with? Strange tho that she was drinking from a bottle and since stopped. Did she get the first milk? Is she pooping and peeing alright?
Wish I could help more. I know it's hard, but you've pulled her through this far, I'm confident you will get her through this too. Feel free to e-mail me if you need some advice on the tubing.
Good Luck!
Lorna
