This morning when checking all my does to see if any are ready to breed.(All were wrinkled and off white)
I saw a pus like semi-thick fluid coming from one of my does vulva (maybe a drops worth). Her vulva is whitish pink with a little reddish tent just inside of the vulva. After wiping away the fluid I saw no further leakage. Anyone have any idea what this can be?
I have had all my does for about a month and a half and none of them show signs of readiness to breed. I have read all the threads I can find about getting a doe to breed and have tried most of them. One of my does is in a cage next to my buck in hopes that would help. I even tried putting a different does in with him for up to an hour at a time ( with me watching them at all times)each on different days,no go. Also, I tried some of the does on several consecutive days.
Have given ACV in their water,parsley,pumpkin,ginger root,apple and other treats. I have yet to make a round cage so there would be no corners for the does to put her butt up against. I don't see how that would do much good as the buck mounts her but they all just wont lift or they dart out from under him.I tried holding them down but they fight to the point I am afraid I will brake some of their bones by holding them too tight. That is how hard they fight to get away.
The cages are in full shade all day long.Temps have been in the mid 50"s in the morning sometimes reaching low to mid 80's in the afternoon.
Would a doe breed if she never turns red or purple?
