Female's would probably be best, as Male's(bucks) do start to spray as they become mature. But female's (doe's) do need to be housed separatly due to fact that as they mature they start riding each ( their internal clock saying Im ready to be a mommy) and they can pull alot of fur off of each...
One of the biggest reasons your doe would eat her kits is she was low in protien. Just before they are about to kindle you can feed the pelleted calf mana to boost her protien levels. Its also a good boost for milk while she is nursing. The only reason I found this out is because just before my...
Alot of great advise here!!! I agree with the 3 strikes, your out rule...But that would only apply spring thought fall for me. It just gets to cold here and even if I do get a doe to take during the cold weather, it just doesnt seem worth it beacause you risk the chance of the babys freezing...

Thank you all for the warm welcome! And Kute Kitten, it was the first day that I let them out of the coop and they must have thought that mower would make a good mommy or something. They stayed by it all day, so I dont know what they were thinkin? Maybe because it was there first day out, they...
