Like everybody else said, Yummy. Pretty, pink meat.

Pappy:
Yep good eating for sure, if you got 30 lbs of meat out of one your fawns must be a lot bigger than ours. Ours would be lucky to go 30 field dressed when they still have spots.  :) by the time you skin/bone and clean up a bit their ant a lot of meat. ;)

I got as surprise one time; I was following a pick-up on a back road after dark when a fawn ran in front of the truck and was hit. The people in the truck were not hunters and wanted to call the game warden. I said I will take care of it, picked up the fawn, threw it in my truck and got ready to drive off. The were saying stuff like we don't want it but you will get in trouble for picking it up  and such, I knew better.

I took the fawn home a cut it up, it had been hit in the head so there was no body damage.

I was expecting great things from this deer but the meat was the toughest, stringiest meat I ever ate. It was late in the season, perhaps the deer was stressed from lack of food but it sure wasn't like other small deer I had eaten in the past.

Ed Brooks:
My kids killed one with spots one summer. When I sag they killed it, it’s kinda a stretch. They road their bikes to a friends house. There was a fawn in the fenced garden. It spooked and ran full speed into the far end of the fence, broke its neck. My friend wasn’t to keen on eating a fawn, until it was cooked. It was tasty for sure. Ed.

A fawn deer this time of year wouldn't be veal anyway because they are already eating regular deer food and not just mother's milk like veal would be. Saying that, I'd definitely eat deer veal if I had it.  ;D   (=)   -C-
