Vaccine Info and Protocols
Understanding the basis for why we vaccinate is important. Described in this section are full length articles on vaccine recommendations and guidelines, autogenous biologics, handling and storage of vaccines, as well as detailed descriptions of each bacteria isolated in our vaccine products.

Fawning 
Having a productive and healthy fawn crop is vital to the success of your operation. Over decades of development, we have compiled resources providing valuable insight into what works best when it comes to fawning. Our resources provided offer guidance on fawn care from birth to weaning. 

Reproduction
Reproduction is a key component in the propagation of livestock, it is a metric of success. Resources include species-specific gestation charts for Whitetail Deer, Sitka Deer, Red Deer, Mule Deer, Fallow deer, Elk and Axis, as well as education on artificial insemination, embryo transfer, semen collection and natural breeding. 

Nutrition
Our Cervid Nutrition area consists of information on the unique aspects of deer and requirements for a well-rounded deer diet. Needs amongst deer vary greatly depending on their stage of life, species and season. We have resources to assist you in creating a solid nutritional plan for your deer.

Remote Delivery and Sedation
Cervid Solutions vaccine products can be delivered remotely. Exclusively using Pneu-Dart remote delivery systems allows us to rely on their more than 50 years of expertise in product development and manufacturing. Pneu-Dart has the lightest and most accurate Remote Delivery Device on the market. Resources and charts for chemical immobilization, sedation and handling are also within the membership area. 

Pen Management and Handling Facilities 
Handling facilities are a key part of any health program allowing for bulk administration of preventive care items such as Cervid Solutions vaccines. A full-length feature video of our “Handling Facility” is available for review within your LifeCycles dashboard. Also, onsite farm consultation of new and existing facilities, design review and planning is available upon request.

Diagnostics
Understanding diagnostics and the pathogens causing disease in cervid can be challenging. Most research on these disease-causing bacteria are focused on cattle or other farmed animals. Cervid Solutions has more than two decades of experience working with deer and has put considerable time and effort into understanding the bacteria that cause disease. Cervid Solutions offers consultation and instructions on obtaining samples from animals and guidance on sending those samples in for diagnostic testing and evaluation.  

State and National Regulatory Review
Understanding your state and national regulatory environment is a large component of developing a long-term strategy for success. Having the resources for review of these items in one place is helpful in the review and planning process.

Chronic Wasting Disease Research and Education 
We offer a comprehensive library of CWD videos, articles, podcasts and presentations focused on CWD along with its biologic and political impacts.                                 

Genetics
Review of animals’ pedigree, performance and production are essential for success of any Cervid Livestock operation. We offer an exploratory process of developing long-term plans revolving around your genetic goals and the use of DNA analysis. 

Marketing and Advertising
In addition to health management and all that goes with maintaining your herd, whatever your goals may be, the business side of cervid farming is of key importance. Marketing and advertising resources are provided to assist you with making your goals year after year.
