Early Nesting
Has anyone ever had a doe that nests super early actually be pregnant?
She was put with a buck a little over a week ago and is hardcore nesting and hay stashing today.
There’s a few things going against her actually being pregnant: first time for her and the buck, and a lot of tries but no observed fall-offs over two hours. I didn’t have my eyes on them every single moment and I know it doesn’t technically need a fall-off, so it was still possible.
I am familiar with early nesting being a sign of false pregnancy, but I don’t know if it’s a good idea to re-breed her now or keep waiting to be sure.
I’m also running into the weather being too hot if I wait the full time and she didn’t take..
