I have a Buck who'll turn 4 in April
Yesterday I filled up his food bowl and give everyone pea flakes and dried carrots pieces (Which they all love)
But I went and checked on him and he hadn't are any of it

I'm pretty sure he's drinking
But he hasn't touched his hay barely either
 
I took him out and his whole left side feels stiff
This is about how big it is

The width and length, not how far it sticks out
 
how is he doing? bloat is hard to combat and you need to treat it immediately with gas drops, and gentle massage. Forcing them to move helps.
He still hasn't ate anything and I'm not sure if he's drank anything either
 
what are you doing to help him? if nothing, you are basically just watching him die and should then mercy cull him.
 
are you gently massaging his belly? if you do so do you feel any lumps in there? Sometimes if you wet some greens and keep bugging him with them he'll grab them just to spite you and sometimes that gets them eating.
