[NEED HELP] I have no-i-dea what my no-eye-deer are doing

Recently I have decided to pen some deer. As you can see, my pen has ~1.5 herd there. The first herd, they spawn during autumn, and I pen them using teleport staff, as I cant push them nor chase them into the pen. It has no problem with them, and they grow antler during winter. Everything was working just fine and expected.

Then the next autumn new herd spawned. So I figured out that hitting them will start chasing them away (as using teleport staff is just way too costly), and I can use that to chase them into my pen. However, they start knocking on trees and drop their antler, which is still not the problem. When I have them all in the pen, they start humping into the wall as shown in the picture above, (THIS IS THE PROBLEM). The problem occurs when I start hitting one of the deer infront of the other deer. Opening up a spot by the wall will make them move there and try to escape. They even start breaking my wall, and I have to kill few of them. So these are the remaining.

They will go to sleep at night as usual, but does not make them become any better the next day.

Anyone can help me stop them from humping walls. (previously they were just wandering in the pen naturally)

I HAVE NO-I-DEA WHAT MY NO-EYE-DEER ARE DOING.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thank you.

Don't tell them what to and what not to love if they want to hump wall let them hump wall it is the beauty of nature.
LET THEM BE FREE TO HUMP THE WALLS OF THE WORLD LIKE NATURE INTENDED!
anyway I don't know what to tell you just keep killing them set them free or get something that attracts them and make them stay there idk

They were previously wandering randomly inside the pen. And everything looked "NATURAL" that time. 

I know I can built salt lick to make them "willing to stay". But that requires regular maintainance. I don't want to do that if possible.

:(:(:(:(

I'm no expert myself, but I heard some heard type mobs have trouble with being moved too quick.

The "herd location" might not have moved along with them and they might be trying to return to it.

I can't say for certain though.

If you wall of a salt lick they will still attract to it but will be stuck over there instead you can remove the lick after to see if the game fixes itself or just keep the walled of salt lick there it should not deplete as long as they don't lick it.

I should try this. Thanks :)

Wait, wouldn't they start humping the inner wall then? Since they are trying to reach the salt lick, but they can't.

A salt lick into the pen mate, why would you put it at the other side of the wall xD.

Again with the wall humping. First volt goats, now these... things..

You said that they were fine before you hit one of them, so maybe you should avoid doing that in front of the herd you already have penned? I mean that's just rude! 

Never tried to pen them though, hell they won't even appear in my world. They don't seem as useful as volt goats, so I intend to save myself the trouble and just go for the antlers.

Penning them is just for fun xD. They are actually totally useless except for their antler.

Did they implement that thing where you hit them and they run around, chopping any trees in their way? Could be messing with their ai.

Nope. They drop antler if they knock on tree.

Nobody should try to stand in the way of the true love between a deer and his wall!

(romantic music swells in the background)

But seriously, I'm more in the situation of pofil here--I've never even seen one of the bloody things spawn in my world yet--Klaus's loot bag yes, the deer no.  Hmmm...
