FYI:
Our schedule is a 6 week breed back
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHitey, our NZ doe has a litter at 5 weeks today. TO facilitate cleaning, I put her in with our backup buck. She immediately lifted and he tried to breed her---without success. He still hasn't got it yet...
My intention wasn't to breed her, but to allow her kits to eat while I cleaned up her scrabbling.
So--should I let her breed as she seems eager or wait another week per my intended schedule?
She has had 3 litters this year and throws great kits usually 6-7 per litter.
I don't want her run down, so I am fine waiting another week.
