two of my does lost their whole litters several days ago. how soon would be appropriate to re breed them? they are 7 and 9 month old meat mixes. first time for the 7 month old, second time and second loss for the 9 month old.
 
I know some who like to wait a month after losing a litter, but myself I breed back ussually a week later, 2 weeks tops. Does are purpose built for one thing in mind, that being breeding. A doe who is kept bred and with a litter will normally have more consistent litters and will not miscarry as often. This also doesn't give the doe time to fatten up between litters cutting down on the chance's of infertility from weight gain.
