Actually I have two "stupid" questions..(smile)
How far along in a pregnancy does a doe start producing milk? We have one doe who is bred, and I am not exactly sure when her due date is, but I suspect it will be by the end of Oct begining of Nov.
Now the reason I am asking when they start producing milk is becasue I have my Patrick who is close to 5 mos old, and he will go over to this doe and start nursing on her. She is not his mother, and but she also does not push him away, and she is producing milk.
Also is this bad for this to happen so close to her due date?
