First time mom lost all

[hitnspit]

My NZW had a litter of 11. she birthed them all out of the kindelling box. They all died. How long do I wait to rebreed her?

A few days to a week.

If they died right away (rather than after a few weeks of nursing) then you can rebreed mom right away. Pregnancy doesn't take nearly as much out of the doe as nursing does. So when the kits die right away, it's fine to rebreed mom right away - won't impact her health at all. If she nurses for a few weeks first, then wait a few days to a week or so. If she nurses to weaning, wait a couple weeks ideally.

Hope that helps!

we've been having TERRIBLE luck with babies this year! we've been raising them for 12 years but i guess there's just some things you cna't explain like how some years moms just cant seem to keep them alive. u can rebreed in a weekish depending on condition
