My doe had her largest litter of 12 surviving kits. (14 orginally)
I like the idea of removing the fattest for the morning and bring back at night but there's a problem I work 2nd shift.
I usually take care of them around 930AM should I wake up extra early to pull out the fattest ones? I thought I read does only drop milk 1-2 times a day at dawn and dusk.
Since night chores aren't done till 1130pm will it be okay?
I can force myself up as early as 6am if I need to but I can't do night chores any sooner.
I'm feeding the last of my borage and then will give flax and fennel seeds for milk production. She had 8 kits yesterday and now today I counted 12 and only some are fed while the others are skinny.
Will my time frame work?
Thanks and Happy New Years!
