As some will recall I narrowed down the herd to one buck and one doe for the move from Colorado to Montana. This morning I found my doe in her nest box stiff and cold. I have no idea except maybe the heat, it was 98 degrees yesterday but they were in shade and had plenty of water. In fact the only thing I have noticed is that she has for several days not been drinking much water, not as much as the buck, even though it has been hot. She had been bred 10 days ago and was still eating normally but not drinking much. I don't know, it's just a real bummer. Now I have to find a new doe or two, either that or just make Bucky a pet and forget raising meat rabbits. Fortunately I was not particularly attached to her but it is a pain none the less.
