Sudden, extreme aggression in boer/nubian doe

[SkyWarrior]

You could all very well be right.

For my own understanding, what roughly are the seasons for this breed? I have one other boer cross and she appears to be about 3+ months pregnant. My saanens should all be in and out of heat for the next few months.

Thanks

My understanding is that Boers/Nubians can be bred anytime, but don't quote me on that. My Boers came in season during the darnest times. Alpine breeds tend to be seasonal in the fall, but not always. I can always tell when my girls are going into season because my Buck, Oreo, starts stinking to high heaven.

I guess that's what it is then! I've not seen her do that before, though that's not to say she hasn't done it in the past when I'm not down there!

With a mixed herd I'm never quite sure but I do believe they are all in heat or coming into heat right now. Even the boer crosses only seem to kid in the very early Spring.
