Ok this is a little weird, but I'm just curious. Can you breed 2 bucks to a doe at the same time? Like one buck mount, then switch to the other. Will the result be one litter, but some of the babies of have one father and the other will have the other father? Or would in result in loss of pregnancy?
I'm just curious, I haven't actually done it.
 
Imho it wouldn't be loss of pregnancy, since bucks do mount a doe several times, that's completly normal, I guess it doesn't matter if it's the same buck every time.

Imho, if the second buck has better aim or range I would not deem it impossible, but quite unlikely. My guess is that the one that places the better shot gets the price, and at least in humans there is a mechanismen that tries to block second sperm, no idea if that is common with other mammals too.

Anyhow, I would be ready to intervene, no idea how a buck reacts when he smells another.
