Well he seemed to have success last night, I guess all that peeing on himself attracted my virginal little Ginger (for those of you who have been following this, the four-teated one).....ewwweeee!

Last night I believe he finally did the deed so I'm counting the days to .....brrrrr.....February. If impregnanted on September 11th, when should she kid? Sad, but it should make it easy to remember she was bred on September 11th. :(

We did get a good chuckle actually watching her try to evade him for a couple hours, but she could not help attracting him too. We only saw multiple attempts and no true success so I'm still going to put her back with him in 18 days just to be sure. He just has been trying to hump her for the past 18 hours straight, at some point I think he hit the mark! lol I didn't get a marking harness on him in time. My adolescent son found it much too funny!
I know we are in a different time zone than the US. I also know I maybe getting a little senile. I also have found that since I have retired it's hard to keep track of days of the week, let alone the month or year.

But here in Belize it is today only the 10 September :lol:

Have I really lost the plot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:gig

150 days, huh? Of course that is if she took this time.

I'm excited already! I can't wait for my first babies, I'll just have to put on my winter duds!

I just purchased a young buck and unfortunately he doesn't stink enough for the girls. You are lucky. I have to go get a stinky rag (she takes an old rag and rubs it on the belly of her mature bucks) from my mentor and put it around his neck!!!

A hint for the stink on your clothes. She told me to use a product (cant remember the name right now) that deer hunters use to remove the deer sent. She said it works like magic to remove buck perfume.

Am I the only one who likes buck smell? :idunno Just like I like how rams smell, though rams don't smell nearly as much as bucks do.

Nope! When I got my doe bred I thought the bucks smelled kind of nice, but the owner was ready to puke!

LOL I went ahead and bought a buck, that I had met before and adored, to see if I could get my child's does bred. Everyone told me that bucks stink like crazy. I was pretty sure this buck never smelled bad, though. :p

Well, being fall he's more fragrant but I actually kind of like the smell. He smell sweet to me. My son says he smells like some kind of nut candy. I guess everyone's sniffer is a bit different, huh? :idunno

Ya don't want to let him touch you or your clothes and I wouldn't want him to smell like this year round because we like to play with him and he lets my 5 yr old ride him (non-rut season) but I don't think he really "stinks". :/
